Thanks pkramer1940 for the Id

Thanks, Jill, for being the first putting up an introduced and invasive species on this mission. This is a Smooth-Billed Ani (Crotophaga ani). It threatens native bird species, robbing their nests. The Darwin Foundation (facebook.com/darwinfoundation) and the Galapagos National Park Service are working to find solutions for such situations.
