The photo at right, taken by David Pantle, shows Pat and Roy Beckemeyer walking down to the boat dock on the Alto Madre de Dios River in the town of Atalaya.
Above: A pond where Perithemis dragonflies (the tiny orange spots seen in the picture) were flying.
Right: Roger Boyd of Baker University feeding the Common Potoo at Amazonia Lodge. We would collect various insects and feed them to the bird when we returned from our birding walks (he did not get any dragonflies, however!).
