Wildlife of the Pantanal with Dale Morris

The pink and yellow flowers of the tabaua trees made the Pantanal landscapes seem as if the typically green and brown trees of the world had been replaced by brightly coloured cotton candy. They are beautiful, and made for a stunning backdrop to a menagerie of Brazilian wildlife. Herds of capybara (the world’s largest rodent) wandered ... Read more

It’s April, one of the driest “Warmest” months in … Read more

Cruising the Pantanal

I sit in a small motorboat in a shallow tributary of the Paraguay River in Brazil’s flooded Pantanal region. It’s a beautiful and peaceful place, alive with jungle trees and bright green swamps, the idyllic backdrop for Pantanal tours.

Antarctica: Behind the Scenes

I’m aboard the Russian research vessel, ‘The Akademik Ioffe’ on a voyage out of Ushuaia in Argentina all the way down to the Antarctic Peninsula.
