A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Onychorhynchus coronatus mexicanus
A small brown bird that has a bright orange crown of feathers that is normally folded back and hidden except during courtship displays or when trying to intimidate an attacker.
I've only ever seen them very close to small rivers and creeks that went through wooded areas.
A higher resolution version of the image can be found on my Flickr page.
