Bird Catalog

So I spent most of my Sunday being totally nerdy and organizing all of my bird sighting pictures on Flickr.

I made 2 sets: 1 set is pictures that I've taken of birds (labeled), and the other set is other people's pictures of birds that I've seen but haven't been able to get my own pictures of yet.

Super fun!
Check it out here.

I'm hoping you guys (Tracy) can help me identify this water bird. It's similar to a biguá, but it's something else.

EDIT: It's a limpkin!! Carão in português :D



It's the only bird in my pictures that I haven't been able to identify. It stands out with the white spots on its head and neck.

  1. I like the Crested Caracara. It looks like it has attitude.

  2. Hey I'm famous! hehe These look like ibises to me. They have a bit of a droop to their bills. All my answers are based on first look, btw. Hopefully with some research in your bird guide you can find the right species.

  3. Those are really cool looking birds, the only ones I ever see are pigeons, crows, and some brown little birds...

  4. I figured it out! It's called a limpkin in English, and "carão" in Portuguese.
