Field Notes

Description:

Bird that can be seen in rainforest like areas of Brazil. Friendly bird who may come near people. The colour of the beak and the blue of their eyes are quite impressive and worth watching; its color intensity and apparent texture cannot be fully captured.

Habitat:

Rainforests

Thank you Santi, Manup and Manud for the nice comments =); this picture was taken at Iguazú falls; there are many beautiful birds over there and yes, we enjoyed observing birds and nature and learning about it a whole lot =). I may say the Iguazú falls are definetely one of my favourite places; no wonder it is one of the world´s wonders ;)
