Definition
A small tropical bird that follows army ants through forests and feeds on insects fleeing from the ant columns.
Etymology
Compound of 'ant' (from Old English 'ǽmette') + 'bird' (from Germanic root), referring to the bird's behavior of hunting near ant swarms.
Kelly Says
Antbirds have an incredible relationship with army ants — they don't eat the ants themselves, but follow the massive columns to snatch up all the insects trying to escape, making it a win-win partnership.
