Andean Cock-of-the-rock (Rupicola peruvianus)
National bird of Peru
Males are unmistakable, featuring brilliant scarlet or orange plumage, black wings and tail, and a large, fan-shaped, disk-like crest that sometimes obscures the bill. Females are more subdued with dull brown plumage and a smaller crest for camouflage.
