Nice Jag mate!


Thought you might like to see this, it is not nominated for 'Beast of the Decade' because I have not chuffing seen one (despite spending the best part of 8 weeks rafting down rivers in Northern Argentina - it's a sore point). It is part of James Lowen's excellent South American portfolio of photographs (the birds are especially stunning, mmmm! many-coloured rush-tyrant...). James is currently working on a Bradt travel guide and saw this jaguar as part of his research. It's a tough life.

The photo above is not bad I suppose, but you cannot help thinking that if James was a real professional he would have licked the corner of a hankie and just cleaned off that small bit of capybara that is stuck to the animal's left cheek.
