EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the Air: Andean Cock-of-the-rock Shows Off His Moves in Amazonia!". In this print by Alex Hyde, we witness a truly remarkable sight deep within the lush cloud forest canopy of Peru's Manu Biosphere Reserve. Perched on a moss-covered branch, an Andean Cock-of-the-rock male steals the show as he struts his stuff at a lek – a gathering place for courting and mating. With its vibrant orange plumage glowing against the backdrop of dense foliage, this flamboyant bird knows how to make an entrance! Its courtship display is nothing short of extraordinary, capturing the attention of potential mates with its elaborate dance moves and melodious calls echoing through the rainforest. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into one of nature's most fascinating rituals. The protected area provides these magnificent creatures with an ideal stage to showcase their unique behaviours and ensure their species' survival. As part of UNESCO's biosphere reserve, Manu National Park serves as both guardian and witness to these mesmerizing displays. So next time you find yourself wandering through Peru's tropical rainforests, keep your eyes peeled for this charismatic charmer! With his enchanting performance and striking appearance, he'll surely leave you awestruck. But remember, no commercial use allowed – let nature take center stage!
