This bird will REALLY wake you up in the morning. It's cries are staggering. You can Google a recording of a pair singing...for me it brought me right back to the pousada!
A beautiful bird, jays are often over looked when one thinks of great birds. This one is a stunner
I understand that the Chopi has movement blur,, but it was the wild gyrating of feathers and spraying water drops that grabbed me.
