La historia
I made this photo of a Gray-cowled Wood-Rail (Aramides cajaneus) at Reserva Natural Hato Berlín in Trinidad, Casanare, Colombia. Pairs are monogamous and stay together all year. It nests on flat branches and in thickets, usually 1 to 3 meters off the ground. A clutch is three to seven eggs, and both parents incubate. Hato Berlín is a civil-society nature reserve on the Casanare savanna, about 10 km from Trinidad, where capybaras, caimans, turtles, monkeys and savanna and marsh birds can be seen. IUCN lists the Gray-cowled Wood-Rail as Least Concern, with a stable population.
I used a Pentax K-1 with a 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6 lens for this one, at 1/250 sec, f/5.6, ISO 1250. The Safari Llanero at Hato Berlín lets visitors watch and photograph wildlife in its habitat and share the culture and food of the people who live there.
