Very strange to see this Chachalca laying in the sun on a trail. We wondered if he was hurt. We rounded a corner and there he was. As we slowly got closer he jumped up and ran into the trees, normal chachalaca behavior. I remember small birds hitting a picture window at our house and getting stunned for a few minutes before flying away. Okay, #birders out there, could this large bird have been stunned? Hit a tree or something? Or gotten into a scuffle with a hawk? #birds #birdsofsouthtexas #lagunaatascosa #lagunaatascosawildliferefuge #imagesbycheri #hellofreedom #birdphotography #ilovemylife
