the sapayoa is a small passerine bird found in the rainforests of panama and northwestern south america. they spend most of their time in mixed-species flocks foraging for insects and fruit. the sapayoa is notable due to its unusual ‘bisexual’ breeding communes. up to 6 adults have been observed collaborating as a family unit to raise one nest’s chicks. little else is known about this bird, as they haven’t been extensively studied.
