Bare-faced curassow
Unmissable as they ran about right outside our room in the Lodge. They walked quickly when they realised they were spotted but it didn’t make them run away. The rufus (brown) bellied one is the female. The male is in full black with just a bit of white on it’s crest. Both spectacular.
