Just a Montezuma #Oropendola braving the rain, his colors still glowing through the downpour. Cheers to pouring excitement into the weekend. #Friday #CostaRica

The wing flapping mating dance of a Crested Oropendola in Tambopata Research Center, Peru. I was too close on top of the tower.

"Nesting Season" - For many species, now when the weather is hot & dry, it's their nest season. Finding mates, building nests, hatching eggs - the cycle of life goes on. Crested oropendola - Northern range, Trinidad.

A crested oropendola (Psarocolius decumanus) sitting by the edge of the water at the Aviary.

A crested oropendola (Psarocolius decumanus) plucking and eating the pink fluffy flowers of a Calliandra tree that looks like what we typically call a Mimosa.

Watched this Crested Oropendola (Psarocolius decumanus) plucking and eating the flowers of this Calliandra at the Aviary. Other birds were eating the fruits, but this guy was digging deep into each fuzzy flower. #inaturalist #calliandra #mimosa #birds #oropendola #aviary

Bird of the day is the montezuma oropendola. They were all over the resort grounds where I stayed in the Arenal region of Costa Rica. I loved their crazy nests and their UFO noises. Just super neat birds! #birds #costarica #montezumaoropendola #oropendola
