“The groove is so mysterious. We're born with it and we lose it and the world seems to split apart before our eyes into stupid and cool. When we get it back, the world unifies around us, and both stupid and cool fall away.
I am grateful to those who are keepers of the groove. The babies and the grandmas who hang on to it and help us remember when we forget that any kind of dancing is better than no dancing at all.”
― Lynda Barry, One Hundred Demons
Great fun too shooting into the low spring sunlight.

The groove-billed ani (crotophaga sulcirostris) is a tropical bird in the cuckoo family with a long tail and a large, curved beak. It is a resident species throughout most of its range, from southern Texas, central Mexico and The Bahamas, through Central America, to northern Colombia and Venezuela, and coastal Ecuador and Peru. The groove-billed ani lives in small groups of one to five breeding pairs. They defend a single territory and lay their eggs in one communal nest. All group members incubate the eggs and care for the young.

These coal-black birds are hard to photograph in a way that reveals details. This one was perched in a bramble of blanche-white thorns and the low sun was in the right direction to show off the grooves in the bill.
The groove-billed ani (Crotophaga sulcirostris) [ebird.org/species/grbani] is a member of the cuckoo family.
This was taken at the Kralendijk sewage ponds - the waste water from the sewage treatment plant has created a series of small freshwater ponds that have become a sanctuary for birds on an otherwise dessert island with very little freshwater. One creature's trash can be another creature's oasis (and a bonanza for birders).
A rarity north of the border. I had only seen anis in Venezuela in 1995 before this one. Although it looks superficially like a corvid, it belongs to the cuckoo family.
