Behavior of these birds:
Probes into sand or mud with its long bill for aquatic invertebrates. Sometimes walks while probing or takes a few steps before burying its bill into the mud. Social outside of the breeding season; forages in groups and also with Willets, Whimbrels, and Long-billed Curlews.

A striated heron perched on a waterside branch. This is not a particularly bold species, but this one allowed us to get quite close.
The branch was nicely diagonal to allow for a good composition without the need to crop.

Swallow Tanager is an unusual species and the only member of its genus. (It was formerly placed in a family of its own.) It is unique among tanagers in the behaviour of sometimes digging a nesting hole in a bank. It is primarily frugivorous but will also sweep out (swallow-like) after insects. This is a male with a black mask and mainly blue plumage with white breast. It was seen near the town of Minca in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in northern Colombia, South America.
Indigo Macaws - this is a critically endangered species resident of interior northeastern Brazil. These macaws are metallic blue throughout with a slight green tinge and have yellow on the bare orbital ring and in a semi-circular patch at the base of its lower mandible. These beautiful birds inhabit caatinga thorn scrub vegetation with stands of licurí palm (Syagrus coronata) and pastures near sandstone cliffs which they use for nesting and roosting. Although this species had been known to science through traded birds, a wild population wasn't discovered until 1978. Since then, several smaller populations have been discovered, with a final population estimate of 140 birds being made in 1994. The Indigo Macaw may have never been common, but wide scale clearing or licurí palm stands and hunting for meat and for the pet trade have decimated populations of this bird. Drastic measures are needed to save this bird from following the same path as the similar, and now presumed extinct, Glaucous Macaw (Anodorhynchus glaucus). doi.org/10.2173/bow.indmac1.01
