Limpkin

Some of the noisiest birds around!
Distinctive voice is a loud, creaky wail, often heard as an eerie jungle sound effect in films.

Large heron-like bird, reminiscent of an ibis but more closely related to rails. Brown with white spots and streaks, densest on the head and neck. Long yellowish bill is slightly decurved. Feeds almost exclusively on apple snails.
