Spent the day exploring Lake Sandoval in the Peruvian rain forest. I was thrilled when we spotted four Hoatzin along the water's edge. Called the strangest bird in the Amazon, it has no close avian relatives! I think it's fabulous. #Hoatzin #Peru #Sandoval

Photo of a Wood Thrush bathing in a little manmade stream. He is super fluffed out so as to get every last bit nice and clean. Photo of a Blue Jay fluffed out as it prepares to dip into the water of a shallow manmade stream. His crest is up and his body is round.

I thought I was invisible until spotted by this cygnet which stared into my lens. A face-off commenced. Great symmetry in a bird.

An image of a cygnet which happened to look into my lens at a key moment. This head shot is the result. The symmetry of facial features most evident.
