Here is a shot of the national bird of Peru, the Andean Cock-of-the-Rock. This bird was photographed just outside the aptly name Cock-of-the-Rock Lodge in the buffer zone of Manu National Park.
Can't wait to go back next year!

All the best,

Alfredo

Alfredo

A nice shot of a very nice, and slightly strange-looking bird.

I like this very much, Alfredo. Great use of space and way to deal with the low light.

Cheers,
Greg
