At the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville, Texas. It is a South American Bird, very unusual with its red face. (Lore ?)

I have not shot much recently so I a going tru old slides. All comments are welcome.

I always wondered what this bird was called when I see them at the zoo. Now I know. Nice head shot

Fine shot of an interesting bird, Juan. I might have liked to see all the feathers on the right.
