Amazon Parakeet Clay Lick

OK - this could have been one of the best things I have ever ever seen in more than 75 countries - hundred and hundred of parakeets came to the clay lick and then took a bath and drink in the mineral springs below the lick - the whole show lasted about 30 minutes but was one of the most spectacular things I have ever witnessed- the sound and fury- the beating of hundreds of wings - the bright green and deep blue of their feathers - just MAGNIFICENT!

Clay lick and a snake waiting for a meal

Our guide found a neighbor snake in the trees nearby. Photo from afar, then the closeup. Can you find it amongst the trees?
