I love the Green Jay.

Potoo is a funny looking bird😊

[@hawhee]

The Grass Green Tanager is brilliant.

[@hawhee]

The Tanagers are all especially beautiful.

[@BirdBrainBrian64]

Most assuredly.

No wonder the Puffbird is so puffed up: he swallowed a whole grasshopper.

[@hawhee]

Bro, you found a lot of owls!

[@hawhee]

I’m guessing that Ecuador has more bird species than the U.S.

[@BirdBrainBrian64]

Yes, Ecuador has about 1600 species. The USA, despite being immensely bigger, only has about 1000.

[@BirdBrainBrian64]

Correct. About 1600 in Ecuador and 1000 in the USA.
