This curious looking bird is a co tinga, and it has an equally curious mating display to match its looks. When the time comes, the males form small groups and perched together to perform their unusual displays. First, they inflate Athene waddle that hangs from the bright red bald patch on their necks like a balloon. Then they lean forward and release a booming noise that sounds like a drum being hit, which resonates throughout the forest.
