A Snowy Egret with a pair of Southern Screamers along the banks of the Mutum River (Rio Mutum) in the Pantanal wetlands in Brazil. Southern Screamers are known for their loud screeching calls. The vast region attracts much tourism for its abundance of wildlife, flora and rainforests, which generates a lot of income into the local economy. The Pantanal is the world’s largest wetland of 42 million acres covering parts of two neighbouring countries, Bolivia and Paraguay. Brazil has the largest area of this pristine ecosystem.
