Oak turaco (SciiFii)

The oak turaco (Ameritauraco albertensis) is a species of turaco, one of the four species of American turacos of the subfamily Americamusophagidae, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, and shrublands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The oak turaco, often inconspicuous in the treetops, is approximately 40–43 centimeters (16–17 inches) long, including a long tail. The weight can reach 225–290 grams (7.9–10.2 oz). The plumage is largely dull green and blue and the tail and wings are dark purplish, except for the crimson primary feathers that are very distinct in flight. On the head is present an erectile semi-circular green crest. On the eyes there are red and white patches. The bill is thick and red. The oak turaco is normally sedentary and strongly territorial. These birds feed on wide variety of wild and cultivated tropical fruits, but can also feed on blossoms. They do not fly very well, preferring to climb from branch to branch. They breed from April to June. Females lay three eggs in a tree platform nest. The oak turaco has a loud cawr-cawr call, consisting of 10–16 raucous cawing notes. The conservation status of the oak turaco is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the oak turaco's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
