Meet the Andean Cock-of-the-Rock (Rupicola peruvianus). Wondering how this bird got its unique name? It’s a reference to this species’ habit of building nests on rocky outcrops. Found at high elevations in the cloud forests of South America’s Andes Mountains, it can reach lengths of up to 12 in (30.5 cm). Males sport vivid red-orange plumage and a disc-shaped crest, but this bird’s appearance isn’t its only unusual trait. Have you ever squeezed a rubber chicken? The Andean-Cock-of-the-Rock makes a similar sound during courtship rituals, which include squeaking, grunting cries!

#Monochromatic Spotted Cuteness brought to you straight from Kenya’s Masai Mara National Park by #wildographydudette @lauradyerphotography Tiny cheetah peaking out behind mom, small and fragile but also curious and inquisitive. Just the epitome of the Mara, such a beautiful ecosystem and such a haven at times for cheetah. And personally, I think perfect in black and white! It’s one of my favourite prints. Have a wonderful happy weekend! #wildography #africanimals #cuteanimals #featured_wildlife #exclusive_wildlife #african_portraits #babyanimals #monochromemonday #wildlifeplanet #wildgeography #wildinafrica #masaimara #natureinfocus #bigcatswildlife (at Masai Mara, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClPKincraxe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Dreaming 💤 I usually never go photographing during the brightest daytime. Most animals are not active and the light is boring. In my opinion the best time is a little before sunset. I took this shot at 8pm some months ago. This was her favorite sleeping spot. While other young foxes preferred resting inside the den, she spent most of her time under this tree.

Be like the bank vole (Myodes glareolus) and hang in there, because the weekend is almost here! Though it resembles a mouse, this species is distinguished by a shorter tail and stockier build. Mostly herbivorous, it’s a proficient climber that uses acrobatic skill to reach seeds and fruits. Its diet also includes moss, fungi, and nuts. Weighing up to 1.27 oz (36 g), this diminutive critter can be found across most of Europe as well and parts of Asia.
