🖤 White‑necked Crow — the largest crow species in the Caribbean, and an endangered endemic of the island of Hispaniola. I love its vocalizations; sometimes it sounds like it’s laughing or teasing. Here, it almost feels like it’s talking to us — “Dame agua,” which means “Give me water” in Spanish.
This individual was rescued but never learned how to feed itself. The Fundación Cap Cana nourishes it daily; otherwise, it would beg for food from humans in nearby luxury hotels and villas.
This remarkable bird also hides a secret revealed only during its courtship display: the hidden base of its neck has white feathers. 🤍
→ If you’d love to discover the birds of Hispaniola and connect with the living world, join my nature walks in Bayahibe, Dominicus, or Cotubanamá (DR).
