Hallkael-võsaruik, Aramides cajaneus cajanea

Kirev hallkael-võsaruik elutseb Kesk- ja Lõuna-Ameerika troopilistes metsades ja mangroovisaludes, eelistades veele lähedal asuvaid paiku. Seda peamiselt toidulaua tõttu - nimelt on linnu lemmikuteks lülijalgsed, krabid, molluskid, konnad ning veemaod, kuid ta ei ütle ära ka marjadest, seemnetest ja kilpkonnamunadest (ja -noorukitest). Foto tehtud Frio jõe kaldal, Caño Negro kaitsealal, Costa Ricas.

Variegated Grey-necked Wood-rail is found in tropical and mangrove forests of Central and South America, preferring locations near water bodies. This is due to its diet - bird's favorites are arthropods, crabs, mollusks, frogs and water snakes but it does not say no also to seeds, berries and eggs (and juveniles) of turtles. The photo is taken by the Frio river in Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, Costa Rica.
