Crested oropendola, Putumayo, Colombia Guides totally ignore this bird, as if it is uninteresting. Probably because it is so common. I still think it is an awesome bird, and it's not common to me. And even if it was, I think it's beautiful, as well as a very entertaining bird to see. They're highly intelligent.
