Martim-pescador-verde (Chloroceryle amazona) (Latham, 1790) fotografado perto da Pousada Araras, no Pantanal, no dia 20/04/2014. O bico enlameado indica que ele estava há pouco ocupado em busca de comida e, provavelmente, estava empoleirado de olho em mais alguma presa.
Amazon Kingfisher (Chloroceryle amazona) (Latham, 1790) photographed close to Pousada Araras, in Pantanal, in April 20th 2014. The muddy beak indicates that it was busy searching for food not long ago and, probably, it was perched looking for another prey.
Socó-boi (Tigrisoma lineatum) (Boddaert, 1783) fotografado na Pousada Araras, no Pantanal, no dia 18/04/2014. Estava parado ao lado do caminho de madeira que adentra área alagadiça na pousada, bem perto de onde ficam os quartos. Estava pescando, como sugere a gota d'água na ponta do bico? Seria remanescente de alguma tentativa recente de captura (não sei se bem ou mal sucedida)?
Rufescent Tiger Heron (Tigrisoma lineatum) (Boddaert, 1783) photographed in Pousada Araras, in Pantanal, in April 18th 2014. It was standing still by the side of a wooden way that leads to the flooded area in the lodge, quite close to where the rooms are located. Was it fishing, as suggested by the water drop at the beak tip? Would it be a remnant from some recent attempt at a capture (I don't know if successful or not)?
