This bird builds a nest that looks like a tiny clay oven.
The Rufous Hornero gathers mud and plant fibers to construct a sturdy oven-shaped nest, often placed on fence posts, trees, or rooftops. These remarkable homes can weigh several kilograms and withstand years of harsh weather.
A master mason of South America, yet one of the continent’s most beloved birds.
