Amazon In the Rainy Season

Two handsome toucans strut around on a branch today.
They are preening their feathers in that familiar male way.
Female toucans are flying around, pretending they are hard to get.
A spider flies by on a string of her own safety net.

Who are they enticing? Asks a leopard who gives a big yawn.
This frightens the undergrowth, wherein hides a fawn.
Amazon’s nature activity is peaking in this rainy season.
Without explanation, logic or any kind of reason.
