    Yellow anaconda... not one, but two !

    Brazil, Pantanal - 5PM, 2022 August 20 It is an animal that is not easy to see, due to its size, color and positioning. I had a chance to identify one as we were heading back to the boat-hotel. It is thanks to the yellow of his skin that I spotted him. It was on the bank, a few tens of...

    Rufescent tiger herons - Regurgitant feeding - A winner and a loser

    Unfortunately there was only one fish for the two young herons. Last image: the loser remains on the ground, wings spread and legs bent, while the second one has gone to swallow his catch. Young herons have a truly magical plumage that I love. Thanks to the SONY 600mm f4 GM, the quality of the...

    Too good this fish...

    The giant otters were a real surprise of this trip to Brazil, by their social behaviors and their mimics and sounds, especially during their meals. Bon appétit. Full size picture here

    My third post and… a jaguar to continue with

    Brazil, Pantanal, August 2022 Shooting at the end of the day, sky rather overcast. The brown mass under the jaguar is a dead domestic cow. One can see a part of its horn at the bottom left. The tip of the horn was cut. The cow swelled over the days, releasing a stronger and stronger smell. The...

    My first post and... a jaguar to start with

    Hello, I’m new here and this is my first post. I’m Philippe, from France. I live in Lyon. A few months ago, I bought a second Sony A1 with a 600mm GM (I already owned an A1 + 200-600 G). To get the most of both combos, I spent hours (cumulated days) reading Steve’s Sony A1 Ultimate Guide and...
