HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF A CRESTED SCREAMER?


We were visiting Atascadero Zoo up in Central California admiring the flamingos when i saw this Screamer showing off.  I was pleased to find that he was still there after two or three years ago when I first got his picture.

Doing a little research I found he is originally from South America.

What a character and what a loud mouth! lol. In the second from the last photo, it looks like it's wearing high heels on those long legs...and those are very big feet!

Grand photos, and the learning created, Thanks! _m
__ I agree, that toe looks like a high-heel spike!

a welcome sound
or the scream of warning
crested's call
