    Haaaa haaaa is the sound these birds make as if it is a human breathing out very hard. Apparently mistaken to have been the Dinosaur Bird as well and endemic to the Amazonian region. I shot this head-on on Lake Sandoval in the Tambopata region of Peru.

    And thats how natures hovercraft hovers with the wings beating at around 80 times per second and speeds up to 80kmph and the capacity to fly forward or backward or hover in the same position while feeding. A marvellous little creature. Forktailed Woodnymph shot near Lake Sandoval, Peru.
