birds that look like fruit <3
my favorite genre of bird picture
I love how it doesn't matter what expedition it is.
They all turn into excited kids when they meet penguins.
Oilbirds or Guácharos (Steatornis caripensis), family Steatornithidae, order Steatornithiformes, Pacto, Ecuador
- These birds used to be included in the order Caprimulgiformes, along with the nightjars, but were separated into their own order in 2010. (They are closely related to the nightjars.)
- These nocturnal birds usually nest in colonies in caves.
- Oilbirds feed on the fruits of oil palms and laurels.
- They are able to navigate at night using echo-location.
