Amazon Lick


So what's going on here in the Amazon? This is a flock of parrots being scared off from a lick by a hawk.

A lick is a place where these birds go to eat dried up mud and have a bath afterward.

Usually licks are found on canyon walls where the red earth of the amazon is exposed. Birds chew the dried up mud because it's a digestion aid.
