ranges
the
grassy savannahs of La Plata.
2
The
caracara
takes little notice, except by bobbing its head.
3
The flight of the
caracara
is heavy and slow, and it is generally an inactive, tame, and cowardly bird.
4
It will frequently wait, as does the
caracara
,
at the mouth of a rabbit-hole, and seize on the animal when it comes out.
5
Sometimes the
caracara
extended its scarlet blossoms from branch to branch, and gave the tree the appearance as though it had been hung with garlands.
6
They even start singing the hit song
CaraCara
when they see the car.
7
It is said, also, that several
caracaras
will unite in chase of large birds, even such as herons.
8
In this list may be included four species of the
Caracara
or Polyborus, the Turkey buzzard, the Gallinazo, and the Condor.

The
Caracaras
are, from their structure, placed among the eagles: we shall soon see how ill they become so high a rank.
10
I believe that naturalists call this bird
Caracara
Polyborus; it belongs to the order of the Apicides, and to the family of the vultures.
