Capybara Stays Calm While Ferrying This Bird Of Prey

Do you like birds?

I do. But they’re surprisingly hard to photograph.

The other day I saw a pair of beautiful Brazilian tanagers, but they flew away before I could get close enough for a picture.

And in Curitiba, there’s a green-billed toucan that lives near Barigui Park.

But, this bird is usually high up in the trees which makes it almost impossible to take a good picture.

Fortunately, there’s - what I believe to be - a falcon who isn’t afraid of people. And I snapped this pic yesterday afternoon.

Enjoy!

Professor Capybara’s Birdwatching Fact

Did you know that British super-spy James Bond is named after American ornithologist James Bond? Author Ian Fleming was a fan of ornithologist Bond’s book, Birds of the West Indies.

And in the movie “Die Another Day,” Pierce Brosnan actually picks up a copy of Birds of the West Indies as a tribute spy Bond’s ornithological origins.

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
