Snail Kite (Rostrhamus sociabilis)
Author's comments:
Aún "casi un volantón", el juvenil no tiene bien desarrolladas las plumas de las alas. Emite una vocalización de reclamo a los padres. Muy probablemente nació en el "Complejo El Lago" a 1,7 Km del lugar pero por el fin de semana largo se llenó ese lugar de cazadores y pescadores (sin control por las autoridades) y las aves que pudieron huyeron hacia zonas próximas. Luego de detener la filmación llegó un macho adulto a buscarlo.
