A marvelous pastel sunset over the muddy waters of the Amazon due in part to dust sediments in the sky stemming from the severe drought affecting the region and the prevailing windy conditions.

Small scale farming in the Amazon rainforest has been evident for thousands of years. It is the large agricultural beef ranching that has had the most impact on the rainforests of Brazil, Bolivia and Peru.
Amazon Kingfishers are skilled hunters They're 11 to 12 inches long, weigh about 4.5 ounces, and are usually seen perched waiting to dive for fish. Found along rivers and lakes from southern Mexico to northern Argentina, the Amazon Kingfisher thrives in lush tropical habitats.

Other than size, the amazon and green kingfishers are very similar indeed. the amazon carries its crest more prominently and white wing spots only visible in flight.

Arguably the longest river in the world, the Amazon meanders its way from the towering Andes in Peru to the sweeping coastline of Brazil, where it empties into the vast Atlantic Ocean. The Amazon River and its tributaries is located in Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, and Brazil. The entire river measures over 4,000 miles from its source to the river mouth. However, the exact length of the Amazon is arguable as the location of its start and end points have both been disputed historically. The Amazon River is currently alleged to be 6,992 kilometers long.*

Aldeia Cipiá
"Sobre o sentimento de estar grato por todas as maravilhas da vida.
A natureza em si como a fauna,a flora,o rio e a Cultura são belos juntos.
Ser grato com a vida é vibrar para si mesmo a felicidade.
Por isso cantamos,dançamos,tocamos instrumentos dos nossos ancestrais para saudar a vida.
Que todos possam chegar com alegria no coração aqui na nossa casa e saiam mais preenchidos ao partirem de volta para seus lares.
Encarar a vida com alegria é transformador e trás mais leveza.
Boa noite amigos Cipiá.
Wãa. Añu. Gratidão"
