As part of the Wildlife Conservation Society Birds of Brazil giveaway we asked readers of 10,000 Birds to name the bird in Brazil that they would like to see more than any other species. I worked with a pair of motmots at a US zoo and fell in love with their vibrant colors and unique tails. and would love to watch Rockhopper Penguins.
