Hitching a ride on an Amazonian crocodile
This Amazonian crocodile was swimming in a lagoon, and a fly was catching a ride on his snout. Both were incredibly calm. I was lucky enough to be passing by on a canoe. It's just one example of how dense the web of life is in the Amazon rainforest, a fact that you cannot miss when you are there.
