Red Ovenbird: It’s just beautiful!

I just found this series of photos on the internet. I would just like to share..

It’s Argentina’s National Bird: Rufous Hornero. Also known as Red Ovenbird. This is totally amazing, it really made me smile. 🙂

They use mud / clay “oven” to create their large thick nest, usually placed on trees. Nests can be constructed in as little as 15 days but it usually takes 2-3months for them to finish it. These birds do no use the same “oven” for the succeeding breeding-seasons.
