Hello again Ricardo,
I was incorrect in my determination of the black birds as turkeys, I am told
(by an expert in Guatemala) that they are in fact Black Guans, Chamaeptes
unicolor! They are rather small birds with a blue 'face'. We live and
learn.
Thanks again for your letter.

>>Hi Julius,
I see these rare guans sometimes on the trees around our house. Big black
birds with blue peaks. They are like turkeys and have a hard time flying.
So no wonder there are almost none left. If you can throw a rock you got a
meal.
