Chachalaca

Ortalis ruficauda

Description:

Photo take near town on a electric post early morning making sound as usual two Chachalas very common in all Yucatan Peninsula. They are social, can be very noisy and often remain fairly common even near humans, as their relatively small size makes them less desirable to hunters than their larger relatives

Habitat:

From South USA , México, to Argentina

Notes:

This birds are my wake alarm every morning they make very noisy sounds you can hear them from far away.
