The Andean countries are some of the most biodiverse on the planet. For example, Peru contains some 84 of the worlds known 103 ecological zones and has over 1700 recorded bird species (a total only bettered by Colombia), while Bolivia’s Madidi National Park is thought to contain more species than any other with some 10% of the world total (in an area roughly the size of Wales), with Peru’s Manu National Park very close behind. The Patagonian coasts of Chile and Argentina are home to an impressive variety of marine life and seabirds, with some of the largest penguin and seal colonies to be found outside of Antarctica.
High quality photographic prints of wildlife with a wide choice of framing options, canvas wrap prints and greeting cards are available. Please visit the Framed Prints page for more details. If you would like a print of any photograph that is not in the gallery please contact James Brunker at magicalandesphotos@yahoo.com A high resolution version of the desired image can easily be uploaded for you.

Chilean flamingoes
The Chilean flamingo (Phoenicopterus chilensis) is the commonest of the three species of flamingo found in the Andes. It is particularly fond of the high altitude salt and mineral lakes, where due to the minerals there is an abundance of their favourite food, algae and miniscule creatures which they get by filter feeding.
