Northern Jacana
Brown Jay
The jays are some of the smartest
birds. They have formed a func-
tioning system of daycare among
all the birds of its family called
jay care. The elder sibling of the
chicks helps the parents in taking
care of the young birds.
Rufous tailed Jacamar
I couldn’t get focused quick enough before these two Rufous tailed Jacamar mates disappeared into the
trees (Costa Rica). It was dark and they were quick but it’s the only way I can say I saw them. Sometimes
I may see a bird and it looks like any-other bird until I get home to look at it’s picture to find that I have
not recorded this one yet. The male is on the left with it’s white collar and the female has the buff collar.
