Chuncho Macaw Clay Lick is a renowned wildlife destination located in the Tambopata National Reserve in Peru. It is famous for attracting large groups of macaws and parrots, which gather on the riverbank to ingest clay, a behavior believed to help neutralize toxins in their diet. The site offers a vibrant and colorful spectacle, particularly at dawn, when dozens of macaws and hundreds of parrots can be observed. Chuncho is one of the best places in the Amazon to witness these stunning birds in their natural habitat, along with other wildlife like capybaras, river turtles, and alligators. The experience is a must for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers.
