Media notes
Another photo that was taken when the Ani was an estimated 75 to 100 yards from us, so it doesn't show very much detail. See closer photos by Jeff Harris on this same date.
Observation details
Continuing bird, see photos by Jeff Harris on this same date and place for much better photos that he took when the Ani was closer to us. Marion and I didn't have our camera with us unfortunately when the bird came in close to us. When the Ani was close to us at the boat ramp it made two calls very similar to what Nathan Pieplow in his Field Guide to Bird Sounds calls the "rising, nasal, usually two-syllabled Weelip" call that is the Smooth-billed Ani's "most common call."
