Amazonas06 - 254 * The Hoatzin (Opisthocomus hoazin) is an odd species of tropical bird found in the swamps of the Amazon and Orinoco rivers in South America. It is pheasant-sized ? but much slimmer ? long-tailed, long-necked and has a small head. It has an unfeathered blue face with red eyes, and its head is topped by spiky crest. It is a weak flier. (Wikipedia)
Amazonas06 - 255 * The Hoatzin eats the leaves and fruits of the plants which grow in the marshes where it lives. One of this species' many peculiarities is that it has a digestive system unique amongst birds. Hoatzins use bacterial fermentation in the front part of the gut to break down the vegetable material they consume, like cattle and other ruminants. (Wikipedia)
