    A cool little family of the Greater Antilles, with a species on each of the 4 big islands. I saw my first one on Cuba many years ago. Now finally, here's a second one! Posted 7 months ago, modified 7 months ago

The Puerto Rican spindalis

The Puerto Rican spindalis is a bird endemic to the island of Puerto Rico, where it is commonly known as ''reina mora'' or ''cigua puertorriqueña''. The species is widely distributed throughout the island and is an important part of the Puerto Rican ecosystem because of its help in seed dispersal and plant reproduction.
