Bunya nest

One of the many birds seen in Moruca, Guyana.  This hanging next belongs to the Bunya bird, a black forest-bird with yellow beak and bright yellow tail.  This bird can exceed 12 inches in length and is known for its long hanging nest.  It has a very loud call which can wake a person up from the deepest sleep early in the morning...very similar to a very loud alarm clock!!
