The guira cuckoo, known in Spanish as the pirincho (Guira guira), is a gregarious species of cuckoo found widely in open and semi-open habitats throughout eastern and southeastern South America. It is the only species placed in the genus Guira. Its range has expanded significantly as a result of deforestation, and it is commonly seen in suburban parks and gardens.
