These impressive birds can imitate the sounds of different species of animals, including the squirrel monkeys that live around Uakari Lodge! One of the animals that hardly goes unnoticed during the stay at Uakari Lodge is the Yellow-rumped cacique (Cacicus cela). Whether for the multiple vocalizations, for the different nest, for the flocks returning to their communal perches at dusk or for their physical appearance, the fact is that these fantastic birds will somehow attract

Estes impressionantes pássaros podem imitar os sons de diversas espécies de animais, incluindo os macacos-de-cheiro que vivem no entorno da Uakari Lodge! Um dos animais que dificilmente passa despercebido durante estadia na pousada Uacari é o japiim (Cacicus cela).

There are are 59 species of woodpeckers in Brazil, 11 of which are at Mamirauá Reserve. Spot-breasted woodpecker (Colaptes punctigula) Eternalized by the cartoon, the woodpeckers (Picidae family) are really colorful birds and why not, ingenious.

Hoatzins (Opisthocomus hoazin) are among the birds with the most striking appearance among the 377 species that occur at Mamirauá Reserve. Some local guides say these animals have got this popular name because they appear to wear blue makeup around their eyes. For me, these animals have a more “rock star” vibe with these long, erect feat

The answer is: yes, thanks to our local guides The three-toed Sloth (Bradypus variegatus) is one of those animals that almost all tourists who come to the inn know that occurs in the area and always ask if it is easy to see. In fact, the animal is not uncommon, the challenge is to find it among the fig trees (Ficus spp.) And cepropias (Cecropia spp.) Since its camouflage is really ver

Well known for being one of the largest aquatic plants in the world, with leaves that can reach 2 meters in diameter and that can hold up to 40 kg! It is impossible to think of any Amazonian scenario without the presence of the beautiful Giant water-lily (Victoria amazonica). As the Amazon is a land of giants, plants would not be left out. Some famous photos of the plant show children on top of the large discs that emerge from the calm and muddy waters of the Amazon Basin. Th

Whether by their size, exuberant colours, or intelligence, the birds of the Psittacidae family – macaws, parakeets and parrots – are iconic and much admired Brazil is the country that has the greatest wealth of parrots in the world with 87 species. In fact, in Brazil’s first official document, the famous letter from Pero Vaz de Caminha, there are some mentions of macaws (only in these we have mostly red representatives) and parrots [“(…) red parrots, very large and beautiful

Seja pelo tamanho, pelas cores exuberantes, ou pela inteligência, as aves da família Psittacidae – araras, periquitos e papagaios – são icônicas e muito admiradas O Brasil é o país que possui a maior riqueza de psitacídeos do mundo com 87 espécies. Aliás, não à toa no primeiro documento oficial do Brasil, a famosa carta de Pero Vaz de Caminha, há algumas menções a araras (só nestas temos representantes majoritariamente vermelhos) e papagaios [“(…)papagaios vermelhos, muito gr
