Hey birdwatchers! Do any of you know what type of bird this is?

Mark 11:22-23

"Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.

If it ain't a North American bird, than I probably don't know what it is.

That is exactly what it is, guira cuckoo (Guira guira). It is a Brazilian bird and it is non-parasitic breeder. I have traveled all over the tropics for various reasons and even though I do not consider myself a bird watcher I look for native species everywhere I have been. My favorites were in New Guinea and Sulawasi, there were so many different species I saw it was unbelievable.
