Chasing the sunrise along the Tambopata River in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon 🇵🇪

This river winds through the Tambopata National Reserve, a stunning sanctuary teeming with vibrant wildlife (& of course, capybaras) ✨

The wing flapping mating dance of a Crested Oropendola in Tambopata Research Center, Peru. I was too close on top of the tower.

While watching Macaws at the Tambopata Clay Lick in the Peruvian Amazon, part of the riverbank caved in. The Macaws all scattered, enabling me to get this shot of them in flight! ❤️💛💙 #Macaws #Amazon #Peru

Spurred by record global prices, illegal gold mining has overtaken cocaine as Peru's most profitable criminal industry, laying waste to the Tambopata National Reserve with toxic mercury pollution & rapid Amazon deforestation.

Capybara family — Tambopata/Peruvian Amazon near Puerto Maldonado. They were completely indifferent to the presence of humans.

Journeyed to the world-famous Tambopata clay lick today, where hundreds of macaws and parrots gather to eat the mineral-rich clay in the riverbank. The minerals counteract toxins in their diets and are a rich source of calcium, magnesium, and sodium. ❤️💛💙 #Macaws #Amazon #Peru

Blue headed Macaws in Tambopata Research Center, Peru. Unlike most macaws, they don’t have the featherless facial patch.

A trio of Blue and Yellow Macaws head out after a morning at the Tambopata clay lick. These Macaws mate for life and can live for up to 35 years in the wild. They are enormous (up to three feet long)! And absolutely stunning! 💙💛💙 #Macaw #Amazon #Peru

🇵🇪 Pese a los operativos, la minería ilegal sigue avanzando en la reserva Tambopata, región amazónica de Madre de Dios. En poco más de 20 kilómetros, Mongabay Latam encontró 20 dragas y al menos 18 campamentos. La Fiscalía estima que allí habría más de 3000 dragas. es.mongabay.com/2026/09/peru...
Perú: más de 200 operativos en el año en Madre de Dios no logran frenar el avance de la minería ilegal en Tambopata
Durante dos días, Mongabay Latam pudo observar cómo la minería ilegal está acabando con decenas de hectáreas de bosques de la Reserva Nacional Tambopata.

#FlashbackFriday Back in the dark ages of 1994 I photographed macaws from a blind set up on a riverbank in Peru's Tambopata Biosphere Reserve. Tambopata is famous for its muddy cliffs that are visited by large groups of macaws.
