Carlo Ferraro
, author of
Venezuela: Paradise for Birds
, and one of the world's most prolific filmmakers, has compiled a kaleidoscope of images with direct sounds to create this digital encyclopedia on South American birds. Here we witness the unique behaviors of these creatures in their natural habitats, including flying, which is the essence of the avian world; eating vegetable materials; insectivorous birds; meat-eaters; getting food in the water; communication by songs and calls; reproduction: building nests, laying eggs, hatchlings, parenthood, taking advantage of man; and, to conclude the program, a stunning hummingbirds' dance. 2008 PIJSCA 50 min.
