  • Red Legged Seriema

    This is a red legged seriema.

    image

    They also look funny floofed up.

    image

    One was gathering sticks

    image

    It would fly down to the ground

    image

    And walk around looking down

    image

    Until it found a stick

    image

    Once it had a beak full

    image

    It would start looking up at the tree

    image

    Then it would do a little hop onto a low branch of the tree, usually losing half of the sticks

    image

    And look up again

    image

    And then hop up to the nest.

    image

    And then back down to gather more sticks.

    image

    It’s friend was gathering bark.

    image

    I don’t know why it wanted bark

    image[5]

    But it was very picky about getting chunks of bark

    image[8]

    They do look easier to carry than the sticks

    image[11]

    It didn’t lose nearly as many hunks of bark hopping up into the tree

    image[14]

    So maybe this is the smart one

    image[17]

    Probably, because it never looked like this.

  • Rio do Peixe

    This says waterfall of the fish river

    image

    There were waterfalls

    image

    On the river

    image

    And paths next to the river

    image

    With stairs

    image

    There were fish in the river

    image

    And many waterfalls

    image

    The river was eroding little caves with stalagtites

    image

    There were also bridges

    image

    Did we mention the waterfalls?

    image

    If you want clever commentary tell Matt to do it

    image

    Here is us with a waterfall

    image

    Here is a selfie with neither of us looking at the camera

    image

    Ooh, the water is really clear here

    image

    And here it’s really reflective

    image

    Time for lunch at the wood fired buffet.
