p.1 #1 · Jewels of the Pantanal


Hello everyone!

I was recently in Brazil and had a chance to take a few shots in the Pantanal and the Atlantic rainforest.

Please look at these images and let me know your thoughts. Your feedback is most welcome!





A pair of Burrowing Owls at sunset and just before they started hunting.







Giant Anteater, no visit to the Pantanal is complete without getting to see this amazing animal!







Say Hello to the Greater Rhea, the largest bird in the American Continent.







Black-collared Hawk in the last light of day.







A trusting Cocoi Heron near a Jacaré cayman, they share the same habitats and get along!







A Black Skimmer working hard to get a fish!







Ringed Kingfisher in its favorite perch!







Giant River Otter munching on catfish!







Southern Lapwing showing off its spurs.







The King of the American Continent having a squabble with his mate after mating!

Another spectacular set Juan, you have great photo opportunities. The heron with the gators is a bit blown out, but its still a cool shot. I guess he doesn't fear outrunning the gators or the tele makes them look closer, heh heh. The head on the hawk is a tiny bit too, but only mentioning because you asked.

A beautiful and diverse set of images. Love them all, but the otter and kingfisher and owls standout for me.
