Screamer
Screamers are plump, long-legged birds, found in marshes and lagoons. Not successful
swimmers, screamers walk about on extended toes, preferring the grassy shoreline. All
screamers have a hooked, chicken-like beak. During breeding season, screamers emit a
two-noted trumpet. A noise that is quite beautiful at first, apparently becoming more
intolerable in time. Screamers can be found throughout South America.
