EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, an Ardea Cocoi, also known as a Cocoi Heron, stands tall and proud in the heart of a lush tropical rainforest. The scene unfolds in the breathtaking Mato Grosso Do Sul State, located in the southern portion of Brazil and a significant part of the Pantanal Wetlands, a renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Cocoi Heron, a large wading bird, is a common sight in the wetlands of South America. With its elegant, slender body and long, S-shaped neck, it blends effortlessly into the verdant surroundings. The heron's plumage is predominantly gray, with a white head and neck, and its legs and feet are a striking yellow. The photograph captures the heron in a moment of stillness, as it balances on one leg, its other leg tucked neatly beneath its body. The rainforest provides a perfect backdrop, with its dense foliage and vibrant colors. The rainforest floor is dotted with roots and rocks, adding texture and depth to the image. The Cocoi Heron is an essential part of the intricate web of life in the rainforest. It feeds primarily on fish and amphibians, making it a vital link in the food chain. The photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving these delicate ecosystems and the diverse wildlife they support. The Pantanal Wetlands, home to an incredible array of flora and fauna, is a must-visit destination for nature enthusiasts and travelers seeking adventure. This photograph by Sergio Pitamitz, captured through Danita Delimont's collection, offers a glimpse into the beauty and wonder of this unique and precious ecosystem.
