Groove-billed Ani

Crotophaga sulcirostris

Description:

Large, black bird with a long tail and thick bill. Lifer for me, and one I had really been wanting to see!

Habitat:

At a small park in town hanging out in trees along the edge of a small field. There were about a dozen reported so I went to look for them and found 5.

I wish! You need to make a trip to south TX, so many birds that only make it into the US there. Tons of cool raptors too!
