Smooth-billed Ani

Roseau Botanical Gardens, Dominica

 

Sorry this isn't a good picture. I got chased away by an angry employer who thought I was photographing her employee working near the birds. I explained that I was a birder and showed her the picture. lol :) It ended well. But the anis flew off. :(

 

 

Smooth-billed Anis live throughout the Lesser Antilles and I've also seen them in the Cayman Islands. I also saw them in Tortola this trip.

 

This bird is not to be confused with the Groove-billed Ani that lives in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.
