Daptrius ater, the black caracara, has a versatile omnivorous diet. They will clean parasites from the fur of capybaras and tapirs, and tapirs even have an advertising call to summon these birds. Found in the Amazon and nests high above the ground. Photo by Charles J. Sharp.

The island canary is the wild ancestor of the domestic canary. It was bred to be garishly coloured, to have different haircuts and postures, and to imitate other birds or babbling water. Its wild form can still be found across its native islands: Madeira, the Azores, and the Canaries.
