I found this interesting so may be people on this list also would be curious.

This is a cool little New York Times interactive quiz. See if you can
identify which is the real Peruvian bird name by its sound, in each of the
10 pairs presented.

Unfair advantage to those of you who have actually studied birds in Peru.
