Birds of Costa Rica. Montezuma Oropendola (Psarocolius montezuma)
The Oropendolas of Moctezuma Psarocolius montezuma are birds that attract a lot of attention due to the intense yellow color that is observed on their tail when flying and for their boisterous behavior when moving between the trees.
These images I took near the tree where they build their nests, which are beautiful bags made with vegetation, especially grass, and that hang from the top of the branches of a tree. In this place you can see up to 10 orioles that they say in community and which they build, clean and monitor the nests which can have several of them.
These birds are known as the forest alarms, since they have special songs that serve as a warning when a predator appears, these songs alert all members of the community and even other species.

Las Oropendolas de Moctezuma Psarocolius montezuma son aves que llaman mucho la atención por el intenso color amarillo que se observa en su cola al volar y por su comportamiento bullicioso cuando se traslada entre los árboles.
Estas imágenes yo las tomé cerca del árbol donde construyen sus nidos, los cuales son hermosas bolsas hechas con vegetación, especialmente pasto, y que cuelgan desde lo alto de las ramas de un árbol. En este lugar se pueden observar hasta 10 oropéndolas que dicen en comunidad y lo cuales construyen, limpian y vigilan los nidos los cuales pueden llegar a tener varios de ellos.
Esta aves son conocidas como las alarmas del bosque, ya que tienen cantos especiales que sirven de advertencia cuando aparece algún depredador, estos cantos alertan a todos los miembros de la comunidad e incluso oras especies.
