Horned screamers are difficult to photograph because they don't stick around when you approach them. Slowly, eventually, I will get an interesting shot of this iconic Amazonian species ("Anhima cornuta", Anhimidae).
When the forest is flooded you can sail right into the canopy. This is the very top of a kapok tree ("Pseudobombax munguba"), accessible by boat when the water is high.
This surreal image captures the beauty and uniqueness of the flooded forest of the Amazon rain forest, Loreto, Peru. I don't believe there is any other place like it on Earth.
