The Andean cock-of-the-rock (Rupicola peruvianus) is perhaps the most distinctive bird of the South American rainforest. This one was at the Aviario Nacional de Colombia near Cartagena.

Remember to read about the contestants before voting!

Tawny Frogmouth

Often mistaken with owls, the Tawny Frogmouth are not closely related to owls! They have large mouths, that they use to catch insects late at night. During the day, they morph their body to look similar to a branch, even swaying in the wind sometimes to mimic a branch. Learn More!

Andean Cock of the Rock

Known for their mohawk head of hair and funny name, the Andean Cock of the Rock is the national bird of Peru. The males will join up in large groups, called "leks", performing for females who watch the hunk buffet. They mainly eat fruits and insects, however they will also feast on small lizards and amphibians. Learn More!

Battle Royale

haven't I seen you here before? (B-2)

For birds who have been in polls before on tumblr. Some were high-profile, some were low-profile, but they came up in the search results regardless.
