Pachyrhamphus
A becard is a bird of the genus ''Pachyramphus'' in the family Tityridae. Taxonomy The genus ''Pachyramphus'' was introduced in 1839 by the English zoologist George Robert Gray in the volume on birds by John Gould that formed part of Charles Darwin's ''Zoology of the Voyage of H.M.S. Beagle''. The type species was designated by Gray in 1840 as the green-backed becard (''Pachyramphus viridis''). The generic name is from the Ancient Greek ''pakhus'' meaning "stout" or "thick" and ''rhamphos'' meaning "bill". The genus had traditionally been placed in Cotingidae or Tyrannidae, but evidence strongly suggests that it is better placed in the family Tityridae, where it is now placed by the IOC. Extant species The genus contains eighteen species: Former species Some authorities, either presently or formerly, recognize several additional species as belonging to the genus ''Pachyramphus'' including: * Rusty-vented canastero (as ''Bathmidura Dorbignyi'') Description The becards are ...

Black-and-White Becard - Ecuador S4E3868 (16298262843)
Black-and-white (B&W or B/W) images combine black and white to produce a range of achromatic brightnesses of grey. It is also known as greyscale in technical settings. Media The history of various visual media began with black and white, and as technology improved, altered to color. However, there are exceptions to this rule, including black-and-white fine art photography, as well as many film motion pictures and art film(s). Early photographs in the late 19th and early to mid 20th centuries were often developed in black and white, as an alternative to sepia due to limitations in film available at the time. Black and white was also prevalent in early television broadcasts, which were displayed by changing the intensity of monochrome phosphurs on the inside of the screen, before the introduction of colour from the 1950s onwards. Black and white continues to be used in certain sections of the modern arts field, either stylistically or to invoke the perception of a histor ...

Cinnamon Becard
The cinnamon becard (''Pachyramphus cinnamomeus'') is a passerine bird found in Latin America. Taxonomy It has been placed with the tityras in the cotinga or the tyrant flycatcher families by various authors, but the evidence strongly suggest the tityras and their closest relatives are better separated as Tityridae. The AOU for example advocates this separation.SACC (2007) Description The adult cinnamon becard is 5.5 in (14 cm) long and weighs 0.6–0.8 oz (17–22 g). It is rufous above and paler cinnamon below, with a grey bill and legs. Unlike other becards, the sexes are similar, but the young are brighter above and paler overall. Northern birds have a pale supercilium and dusky line from the bill to the eye, but the subspecies ''Pachyramphus cinnamomeus magdalenae'' west of the Andes shows more contrast, with a stronger supercilium and blackish loral line. The calls include high thin whistles. The males' song is a plaintive ascending ''dee dee dee dee dee dee de'' wh ...
