"Spectacular and conspicuous black-and-yellow bird of tropical lowlands in west Mexico. Favors deciduous forest and edges, plantations, and hedges with tall trees; often in towns and villages, especially near streams and rivers. Usually in flocks, moving through the canopy to feed at flowering and fruiting trees, but also feeds readily on the ground; often associates with flocks of jays. Note the raised crest that flares up like a floppy fountain spray."

November 25, 2021 - Red-rumped Cacique (Cacicus haemorrhous)

These caciques are found in parts of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, Venezuela, and northwestern Brazil, and in a separate range in southeastern Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. Foraging in flocks, they eat insects and other arthropods, small vertebrates, fruits, and nectar. Breeding in colonies, females weave large bag-like hanging nests at the ends of tree branches, often over water. Females incubate the clutches of two eggs and feed the chicks, though males may rarely assist with chick care.
