    This was one of the images of a Giant River Otter I wanted to take, head out of the water looking at me and so close to the boat. Pantanal.

    A couple of birds in flight from my recent trip to the Pantanal. Ringed Kingfisher has just taken a fish, this happened so quickly and was pleased to get a usable image. The second is a Black Collared Hawk diving for fish that had just surfaced.
