The Northern Crested Caracara, Northern Caracara, or Crested Caracara Caracara cheriway is a bird of prey in the family Falconidae. Unlike the Falco falcons in the same family, the cacacaras are not fast-flying aerial hunters, but are rather sluggish and often scavengers.

These were photographed at the Hacienda Solimar.
