  1. Another endemic, and one of the prettier chachalaca species that I've seen, along with the usual dinosaur vibe! Posted 7 years ago
    1. And taken so well, such a clear shot! Posted 7 years ago
      1. Thanks! It was not scared of me but it was moving around a whole lot, and this was one of the few shots where it's not (too much) obstructed by branches! Posted 7 years ago, modified 7 years ago
