The Southern Screamer is found mostly in South American countries. I didn't hear him screaming but saw him doing a funny kind of dance with his beak wide open - a mating ritual I suppose. The female is lying behind him most unconcerned. I wouldn't recommend this act to young men who are courting their beloveds.

That a great shot of that strange looking bird. I wonder if they eat those things in South America. Good work, Raj.

Whatever he is dong he looks to be enjoying himself :)
Great detail in the plumage and a well timed capture that gives him a comical look.
Good one !!

This is a interesting action shot so well done, but not such a handsome fellow. Nice work.

I'm relieved to hear he didn't scream for you Raj. I can't imagine he'd be very musical. I should imagine his girlfriend is hiding out of embarrassment. Nice shot though.

He really doesn't look too happy your taking his picture, he's definitely a high stepper. Super capture and unique bird
