Where there is a capybara, there is usually a bird or two. In this case, it’s a pale legged hornero getting a free ride, as well as a few delicious bugs. The capybara is the world’s largest rodent. They are widespread throughout much of South America, up into southern Central America. I photographed this one in the Pantanal of Brazil.

I love a capybara. The big odd giant animals are some of my favs.
