It resembles a mix between a turkey and a dove and is notorious for its
loud and rambunctious call, which starts slow but gradually grows in pitch
until it reaches a fevered note. In Costa Rica, someone who talks a lot is
known as a chachalaca.

This is a wonderful bird, and you posted its pictures on September 16th also. I don't mind seeing it again.

DeleteThat's so fascinating! I had never heard of a chachalaca before, but the detail about its loud call is so vivid. It's really cool to learn about the way the name is used in Costa Rica. It makes so much sense. Thanks for sharing this fun bit of trivia.
