Lesser Kiskadee

Brazil

www.texastargetbirds.com

The Lesser Kiskadee is a bird I look forward to seeing when visiting South America and our trip to the Pantanal didn’t disappoint. We get its larger cousin, the Great Kiskadee, here in south Texas so it is neat to see the “other version.” The Lesser Kiskadee is not only smaller than the great but it also has a thinner beak and it has a much different call that to my ear doesn’t sound anything like kis-ka-dee at all. I wonder which was named first…?
