1. Seriema

   The seriemas are the sole living members of the small bird family Cariamidae, which is also the only surviving lineage of the order Cariamiformes. Once believed to be related to cranes, they have been placed near the falcons, parrots and passerines, as well as the extinct Phorusrhacidae (terror birds). The seriemas are large, long-legged territorial birds that range from 70–90 cm (28–35 in) in length. They live in grasslands, savanna, dry woodland and open forests of Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. There are two species of seriemas, the red-legged seriema (Cariama cristata) and the black-legged seriema (Chunga burmeisteri). Names for these birds in the Tupian languages are variously spelled as siriema, sariama, and çariama, and mean "crested".

1. seriema

   A seriema is a type of large, long-legged bird native to South America. It belongs to the family Cariamidae and is known for its distinctive call that sounds like a series of whistles. The seriema has a crest of feathers on its head and is predominantly brown in color, with strong legs and feet for running and hunting small prey and insects. They are terrestrial birds, and while they are capable of flying, they prefer to spend most of their time on the ground.
