I have to suspect that is where the family name comes from. This immature Bare-throated seen from a boat on the Sarapiqui river (only a chick really as it was still begging and being fed) shows both the striping and some unusual attitude. The full flaring of the neck and the crest are not commonly seen. OM Systems OM-1 with ED 100-400mm IS zoom at 736mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications.
