This is one is quite the ham.

Giant river otter at the Berlin Zoo. ISO 12,800 was no match for the speedy movements of this fellow, above water or below, at least not in the deeply shaded place that his tank was located. The thick Plexiglass also worked its deviltry on IQ.

Do fish count as wildlife? If not before, now they do. I always liked this image of a lion fish.

THERE they are. Shook off all that sea foam from their hooves PDQ.
Here's a fish you'll know is on the line. Arapaima.

Avocet, both pretty and a little odd. The beak looks impossibly fragile.

Agree, I find them fascinating birds, and have not seen too many.

Tri-colored heron.
SFAIK the upper & lower bill of an avocet are normally the same length, so the individual in the picture has lost the tip of its lower bill. Guess it comes of sticking your bill in where it's not welcome
