It is called the hoatzin.

Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip g these four claws ,together with the beak(喙),they can climb about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws.
