The call of the Howler Monkey is one of the most notable, and eery,
sounds of the rainforest. The alpha male makes this call to define the
territory of his troop. Sometimes competing troops can be heard calling
back and forth to each other. Stereo monkeys. The sound can carry for
several miles. Howling recorded on a recent GreenTracks Amazon Riverboat
Cruise.
While traveling upriver in the Pacaya Samiria
Reserve on the Clavero riverboat, we were spotting wildlife from the
observation deck when, much to our surprise, a rarely seen Harpy Eagle
flew across the river in front of us. We stopped the boat and watched as
the Harpy, the most powerful raptor in the world, landed on the top of a
tree and sat there for 10 minutes, allowing us all to get photos.
