Three-wattled bellbird
The three-wattled bellbird is a unique and striking bird found in Central America's montane forests, especially in Costa Rica. It is known for its loud, metallic call, which can be heard over a kilometer away. The male is distinctive, with three long, fleshy wattles hanging from its beak and bright white plumage with brown wings. The bird's call is often compared to the sound of a bell or a hammer striking metal. This rare species plays an important role in seed dispersal within its habitat.
