Glad you like it Shyanni - this was taken in the cloud forest of Mindo, Ecuador, at a time when many birds come and feed on ripening fruits, in this case bananas. Aracaris are very noisy - but equally timid and not easy to shoot up close :mad2: VR was very useful here as there's no time ever to set up a tripod shot.

Sorry for the low quality of the image - you can see in all its high-res glory on our free quarterly online magazine ANIMA MUNDI - Adventures in Wildlife Photography - each issue a 140-page pdf available for free downloading at www.animamundimag.com...check it out, it's free :thumbsup:
