Hornero (Furnarius rufus): Horneros are brown birds with rather short tails and fairly long bills.They are known for building mud nests that resemble old wood-fired ovens (the Spanish word "hornero" comes from horno, meaning "oven").These nests have a unique chambered construction.

We are closely involved with the local and extended community
