The Long-wattled Umbrellabird was one of the clowns of the Cloud Forest in Ecuador. The male’s umbrella headdress was an amusing feature that as I mentioned in a previous post, reminded me more of Moe Howard of the Three Stooges, than of an umbrella. The female, on the right, had more of a 50’s pompadour, kind of an Elvis look. Whenever they arrived at the perches near the Hide, they made quite a commotion, sometimes causing the perches to fall down. They were always a welcome sight, hairdos and all.
