The turpial can live alone or as a couple.His melodious, sonorous and varied song that is heard at dawn and is very appreciated.The males usually sing more than the females.

Its reproduction occurs between the months of May and June, on few occasions they build their nests since in some cases they aggressively expel their occupants.Its laying is 3 to 4 eggs and the incubation is only given by the female.The pups are fed by their parents approximately for 15 days.
