Cover photo description:
The bird northern crested caracara Caracara cheriway, also called the northern caracara and crested caracara,is a bird of prey in the family Falconidae. It was formerly considered conspecific with the southern caracara C. plancus and the extinct Guadalupe caracara C. lutosa as the `crested caracara`. It has also been known as Audubon`s caracara. As with its relatives, the northern caracara was formerly placed in the genus Polyborus. Unlike the Falco falcons in the same family, the caracaras are not fast-flying aerial hunters, but are rather sluggish and often scavengers
