. But we were determined to leave soon after. At 6:00 the next morning we got up and packed, ready to jump off a boat if necessary. From our camp at the top of the
river embankment, we could see a good half mile upriver before the curve obstructed our view in rainforest fields. It was that moment we stared at each other, waiting, waiting, and even
occasionally imagining a boat was rounding the turn. A small-mumbled little by noon, but was too small to accommodate us. Because we had to stay packed and ready to go
out at any time, we were forced to sit and keep watch over the river without mosquito protection from our covered hammocks, and without the luxury of hiking or fields exploring to
ease our boredom. The day slipped terribly far without even a trail of escape. The morning of the fourth day in Blanquillo began like everyone else. We wake up early, pack
our things with diminished enthusiasm, and hopefully. Your muscle tongues are adept tools to scoop out fruit pulp and nectar from the flowers. The parrots are mostly green amazon fields
which can make them very invisible when perched on the leafy forest canopy. They reveal their presence through vocalization, usually with a harsh chirp or croak. Their
nests are usually made in hollows of the trees, holes of woodpeckers, or in cavities excavated in nests of arboreal termites. The large Amazon parrots and macaws usually
mate for life, with the marital status maintained by feeding and mutual cleansing. These mated pairs often fly together within large fields amazon herds MAZON BIRD FIELDS:
Blue-yellow macaws are well known for being loyal to their life partners! They make their nest in a hole in a giant palm tree where a female macaw puts its eggs, usually two
or three. The female sits on eggs for 28 to 30 days. The young nest about 90 to 95 days after hatching. Lots of macaws can be observed every day at clay-lick (clay licks
on quechua mountain native as well as rainforest native languages). Clay-lick attract macaws in amazon bird and other animal files as they contain salts and
minerals, which help against strong alkaloids and toxins contained in plants and many tropical rainforest trees . We amazon fields visited one of the most famous “collpas” – Collpa Blanquillo
on the tour of the Amazon rainforest fields !! It also observes the fauna and lush vegetation of the Culture Zone of Manu National Park and White Lake (Cocha) in Amazonian bird fields.
Their feet are very suitable for handling food. They can be left-handed or right-handed. Using their strong, nutcracker-like beads, they can crack many of the hardest nuts and
seeds, because of this ability to crush and digest the seeds; Which are mainly seed predators rather than seed dispersers. They feed on nuts and seeds with the same fruition as the pulpy fruit itself.
