Curler-crested Aracari
Curl-crested Aracari for day 10 of #birbfest2024 hosted by @monkeymintka.
Did you know the Curl-crested Araciri nests in tree hollows (usually made and abandoned by woodpeckers) with up to five adults and fledglings?
I kept seeing all the awesome results for the birbfest2024 prompt of Curl-crested Aracari. And I thought - hmmmm. Curly feathers? In this post, I reveal how the birds achieve their distinctive look! What species would be so crazy as to use torture devices like this just in the name of beauty?
