Giant Cowbird and Capybara friend OK, I could have listed this one under Capybara - but instead I chose the bird to add a new species to JD! Like my other Capybara and bird photo, birds of the Pantanal in Brazil love to perch on Capybaras and the "Water Swine" don't seem to mind.

    A good choice, my friend. Boosting your own species number (which is impressive and rapidly growing), but also good for overall JD numbers. Posted 8 years ago

    Well, hopefully it makes up for the Sumatran Rhino and East-African Oryx I have had removed. Say, I saw your contest, how close are we to 10,000? Posted 8 years ago

The Giant cowbird

The giant cowbird is a large passerine bird in the New World family Icteridae. It breeds from southern Mexico south to northern Argentina, and on Trinidad and Tobago. It may have relatively recently colonised the latter island.
