Chestnut-headed Oropendola
I strive to make images of birds while they are performing a behavior. When visiting Costa Rica I made this Cacique image while s/he was eating.

The Chestnut-headed Oropendola is a striking bird found in the lush rainforests of Central America, particularly captivating with its vibrant chestnut-colored head and contrasting black body. This species is known for its unique, pendulous nests and melodious calls, which add a layer of enchantment to the forests they inhabit. My visit to Rancho Naturalista in Costa Rica provided an unforgettable birding experience, where I was immersed in the natural beauty and diversity of the region. The lodge offered comfortable accommodations directly amidst vibrant biodiversity, making it a perfect base for observing the Chestnut-headed Oropendola and countless other exotic birds in their natural habitat.
