Andre Bartschi collected 拢1500, a bronze statue of an ibis and
several insect stings for this vibrant shot of red-and-green macaws fluttering
away from a riverbank. The birds lick at the clay bank, possibly as a way
of neutralising toxins in some of the plants they feed on. To get his shot,
Bartschi, who lives in Liechtenstein, spent many hours crouching in a cramped,
insect-ridden hide in the Manu Biosphere Reserve in the Peruvian Amazon.
The photograph has won him this year鈥檚 British Gas Wildlife Photographer
of the Year Award.
