![]() Trupial in Curacao Good evening readers, here’s another beautiful trupial from high atop mount Christoffel. This flying beauty was sitting on a perch made of ball moss, air plants and epiphytic bromeliads. These trupials seem to eat just about anything they can find and this one here was hunting for insects or small lizards that hide in these bromeliads.
These little bromeliads he’s sitting on can also hold water for long periods of time meaning these trupials may also be also feeding on small frogs as well. I have watched these birds for years and they really are smart and aggressive, they love getting into trash and will chase off any other smaller birds. These birds also have the most unusual and beautiful sounds you will ever here, it’s so distinctive that no matter where you are when you hear it you know there’s a trupial near by.
That’s it for tonight, we all worked today, it was hot and windy!! See you soon, Barry
