February Summer in Argentina
February Summer in Argentina  
Podcast: BirdNote Daily
Published On: Sat Feb 07 2026
Description: In February, winter still holds sway over much of North America. But in Argentina, it’s summer, and birds are in full voice. Argentina’s national bird, the Rufous Hornero, belts out a rapid trill while the Rufous-bellied Thrush sings its lovely song. In the tropical forests of northeastern Argentina, a male Red-ruffed Fruitcrow, like the one pictured here, booms out its display calls. And the cheerful, bubbly notes of an Ultramarine Grosbeak remind us that spring in North America — and the arrival of birds like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak — isn’t too far off.¡Escuche este episodio en BirdNote en Español!More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?
