Curicaca no Pantanal

Curicaca
Theristicus caudatus
Buff-necked ibis

Essa é a curicaca, dizem que seu nome é derivado de seu canto, mas tenho que admitir que é preciso ter fé pra entender curicaca quando ela chama. De qualquer jeito, é uma ave muito bonita e bem comum na @caimanpantanal

O bico curvo é excelente para extrair larvas de besouros e outros insetos da terra fofa, mas também permite que ela pegue outros invertebrados e até lagartos, ratos, caramujos, anfíbios, pequenas serpentes e até aves menores.

This is the buff-necked ibis (Theristicus caudatus), people say its name in portuguese (curicaca) is derived from its call, but I have to admit that it takes faith to understand curicaca when it calls. Anyway, it is a very beautiful and very common bird at @caimanpantanal

The curved beak is excellent for extracting beetles larvae and other insects from the soft soil, but it also allows it to catch other invertebrates and even lizards, rats, snails, amphibians, small snakes and even smaller birds.
