The great dilemma; does this go into birds or wildlife?  I have opted for wildlife because I have so many more birds than mammals.  Taken on the Pantanal in Brazil along the riverbank.

Actually, I think it is a Social Flycatcher rather than a Kiskadee.

One way to decide is to ask yourself which occupies the largest amount of the image - and in this case it is undoubtedly the capybara.  :wink:


The bird seems to prefer a warm perch!
