a semester in farmer’s markets
You may have heard of toucans, but have you ever seen the Spot-billed Toucanet (Selenidera maculirostris)? This species inhabits forests throughout Central and South America, including parts of Argentina and Brazil. It’s often seen in pairs or small groups foraging for fruit. In addition to the signature spots on its bill, it has dark spots around its pupils; this gives off the illusion of horizontal pupils. Reddish-brown plumage on the head is a telltale sign of a female. Males have black plumage instead.
