Flora and fauna of the Rio Plate

[fivemack]

As always, in the big city the bird that thrives best is the pigeon; in more rural areas large groups of sparrows dust-bathe fluffily.

These ones are ubiquitous (I'm assuming they're the female and the male): starling-sized though looking as if they ought to be tit-sized

In a park by the river in Colonia we had these attractive, but loud, parrots

This handsome white-bandannaed fellow who gave a regular alarm call

And this pair of pigeon-sized perchers

As for flowers:

And this, the least huggable tree in all Creation
