About Pampas Fox: The Pampas fox (Lycalopex gymnocercus), also called the Azara’s fox or pampas zorro, is a medium-sized canid native to the open grasslands, shrublands, and dry forests of South America, particularly in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, and Bolivia. Despite its common name, it is not a "true" fox (Vulpes genus) but belongs to the South American canid group known as Lycalopex. It has a slender body with long legs, a pointed muzzle, and a bushy tail tipped in black. Its fur is generally grayish-brown with reddish tones on the head, ears, and limbs, while the underparts are paler. Adults usually weigh between 4–7 kilograms (9–15 lbs) and measure about 60–120 cm (24–47 in) in length, including the tail. The Pampas fox is omnivorous and opportunistic, feeding on small mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, carrion, and plant matter such as fruits. It is mostly nocturnal or crepuscular, often foraging alone, though pairs may be seen during the breeding season. Ecologically, it plays an important role in controlling rodent populations and dispersing seeds. // Image Credit: Wolf, Joseph, and Philip Lutley Sclater. 1861. Zoological Sketches. Vol. 1.

The Black-hooded Oriole (Oriolus xanthornus) is a strikingly vibrant bird found predominantly in South Asia. It is easily recognizable by its bright yellow body, contrasting black head, and red beak. Males and females look alike, with females being slightly duller in color. These birds are commonly seen in open woodlands, gardens, and near human habitations, making them one of the more noticeable members of the oriole family. Known for their melodious and flute-like calls, black-hooded orioles are a delight to birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts. They are primarily frugivorous, feeding on fruits and berries, but they also consume insects and nectar. The bird is non-migratory, but it may move locally in search of food. Its nest is a finely woven hanging structure, often hidden in the fork of tree branches to protect from predators.
