São Paolo and Paraná States, , 3rd to 18th September 2006 Guides: Edson Endrigio (4-13 Sept., [email protected]) and Raphael Luiz Moura Sobãnia (14-17 Sept., email [email protected]). With Hugh Dingle, Peter and Margaret Armstrong and for 4-13 Sept. David and Kay White from England.

Overview and Highlights During 15 days I recorded 397 and 380 of these were seen. Voice only records were based on hearing recordings of alongside hearding the bird responding except for a few species that I knew already. I saw 214 life birds and heard another 24 species.

3 September: arrive in Sao Paolo at 10:30 hrs and spent day at airport hotel (Best Western Panamby Hotel). Birding in the hotel gardens produced about 33 species including -tailed Hummingbird! 4 September: drive to Ubatuba and bird Folha Seca trail and feeders at Jonas's house, c 11 km WSW of Ubatuba. The feeders at Jonas's house produced lots of good hummingbirds and including Festive Coquettes, Brazilian Ruby and Sombre Hummingbird. The afternoon produced Tawny-throated Leaftosser, Slaty Bristlefront and close calling but not seen Unifrom Crakes. Owling until 19:00 hrs. Night in Ubatuba at Recanto das Palmeiras Lodge which was pleasant and with full amenities. 5 September: bird lowland Angelim Rainforest until lunchtime and then Folha Seca trail again in the afternoon and owling until 19:00 hrs. Angelim produced Buff- throated Purpletuft, Temminck's Seedeater, and a good variety of antbirds, antshrikes and antrwrens. The afternoon produced Star-throated Antwren and Long-billed Wren. A Variable Screech-owl called after dark and flew over but was seen only in flight. A Mottled Owl was seen well. Night in Ubatuba again. 6 September: Drive to Campos do Jordao, stopping in morning at farm c. 13 km due WNW of Tremembe for Firewood-gatherer and other open country birds. Arrive at Campos do Jordão at 11:30 and drive up road beside entrance to State Park before lunch to get Hellmayr's Pipit in grassy areas at the top. (Hell Mary's Pipit according to our rendering of Edson's pronunciation.) Birding in montane deciduous and Araucaria forest on the way down produced Black-capped Piprites, Araucaria Tit-spinetail, Sharp-tailed Streamcreeper, and White anong others. Lunch in Campos do Jordão then birded the state park in the afternoon ending with Vinaceous Parrots flying to roost at dusk then owling up road beside park (again) but unsuccessfully. Night at Hotel Vale Verde Campos do Jordão, which was unheated but had warm showers and electric blankets. 7 September: Frosty cold morning. Birded montane forest along Pedro do Bau Road starting at c. 7.9 km due NNW of Campos do Jordão until 9:00 hrs and then drove to Intervales State Park arriving at 17:00 hrs. Morning birding produced Serra do Mar Tyrannulet, Serra Tyrant Manakin, Gray-bellied Spinetail, Red-ruffed Fruitcrow, and Robust among others. Saw Tawny-browed Owl and Long-trained Nightjar along Largeado Road after dark (up to 19:00 hours approx). Night at lodge in Intervales State Park, which was basic but with a fire to sit around. 8 September: Excellent morning birding Carmelo trail in morning, lunch at dining hall in state park, then trails around lodge in afternoon. Highlights included a pair of Spot-billed Toucanets feeding on palm fruits and then the male feeding the female, Sharpbill, Hooded Berryeater, Helmeted Woodpecker, and an as yet undescribed form of Slaty Bristefront. Ended day with Rusty-barred Owl and displaying Long-trained Nightjars after dark, then. Dinner and night at lodge. 9 September: A quieter day compared to yesterday. Largeado trail in morning, Bocaina Road and Barra Grande Road in afternoon (to 19:00 hours) ending with Silky- tailed Nightjar. Hiking the Bocaina Road produced Short-tailed Ant-thrush and Sao Paolo Tyrannulet among others. Playing a tape into a recently cleared area in a marsh produced Red-and-white Crake in the afternoon. Meals and night at lodge. 10 September: Carmelo Road in the morning, trails around lodge and Barra Grande Trail in afternoon. Highlights included Such's Antthrush and Least Pygmy-owl. Saw 3 Swallow-tailed Cotinga near the park entrance in late afternoon. Day ended at 19:00 on Carmelo road after seeing Ocellated Poorwill and hearing Silky-tailed Nightjar. Meals and night at lodge. 11 September: Early morning departure for Itatiaia, arriving there at about 16:00 hours. Stopped at two roadside marshes to pick up water and open country birds along the way. Saw Southern Antpipit shortly after entering the park and then drove to Nora's House to visit the feeders to see Frilled Coquette and others. Variable Screech-owls at Hotel Donate shortly after dark. Dinner and night at Hotel Simon in Itatiaia National Park, luxurious! 12 September: 4:40 am departure for marshes near Quelzes to see Giant Snipe at dawn— spectacular views! Birded Agulhas Negras Road up into the park in the morning going up to high altitude forest. Highlights included Speckle-breasted Antipitta and Black-and-gold Cotinga, as well as Rufous-backed Antvireo. Returned to the farm with the snipe at lunchtime to look for open country birds and see White- eared Puffbird. Late lunch at Hotel Simon in Itatiaia followed by birding feeders at hotel until 16:30 hours. 13 September: Birded Tres Picos Trail in Itatiaia National Park until 11:30 hours. Dusky Titi Monkeys along trail, and good views of Rufous-tailed Antthrush and Rough- legged Tyrannulet. Arrived back at hotel to find Swallow-tailed Cotingas in the parking lot. Lunch at hotel then drove back to Sao Paolo in the afternoon, arriving at shortly after 17:00 hours. A brief stop at the marsh on the way out of Itatiaia produced Wedge-tailed Grass-finch. Night at Best Western Panamby Hotel. 14 September: departed at 05:30 for Paraná State with Raphael and new driver, Sergio. Birded the Graciosa Road east of Campo Grade from about 11:00 to 13:00 hours. Grasslands produced Long-tailed Reed-finch but the highland areas were windswept and it was hard to find many birds in the midday heat. We stopped for lunch at an old hotel and ate good local seafood. We proceeded to the coast near Pontal Do Paraná and birded some coastal grasslands for Yellowish Pipit and South American Snipe. Took a private charter boat from Pontal Do Paraná to Isla Dos Pinheiros and sat just offshore watching around a thousand Red-tailed Parrots flying to roost on the island. Also several pods of Tucuxi dolphins. The boat trip to the island also produced a Cayenne (Sandwich) Tern. We spent the night on a neighboring island (town of Caiobá) and stayed in the Bela Baia posada which was simple with bunkbeds and local seafood but adequate and peaceful. 15 September: We departed the island at dawn on the boat and then drove south to near Garuva in Santa Catarina State to bird a farm (Sitio Alegra) where we walked areas of scrubby woodland and reedy marsh in the late morning up to about 13:30 hours. The owners were friendly and helpful, and served us fresh passionfruit juice. We located Paraná Antwren (= Marsh Antbird), Restinga Tyrannulet and Kaempfer's Tody-Tyrant. We then drove to Curitiba back in Paraná State. We visited a small park in the city, Universidad Livre de Meio Ambiente with swampy woodland patches to see Canebreak Groundcreepers. At a farm with grassy scrub areas near the small town of Sao Jose Dos Pinheiros we found a Lesser Grass-finch and birded until dark, but were rained out at dusk putting pay to our hopes of nightjars. We drove back to Curitiba and during breaks between rain storms we found calling Long-tufted Screech-owls at Parque Barigui. Night in Campo Largo at a modern comfortable hotel with internet access. 16 September: We drove to NW to Vila Velha State Park near Ponto Grossa and talked the park personnel into letting us visit the cliffs to look at nesting Biscutate Swifts, see Plush-crested Jays and Glaucous-blue Grosbeak, and then to bird scrubby areas looking for Spotted Nothura and Red-winged Tinamou. We then drove in the rain and fog (low cloud) to Canyon Guartela State Park and walked down into the canyon. We had distant views of Great Dusky and Sooty Swifts. At about 1:30 it began to rain and the rain stayed with us for the rest of the day so we retired to a hotel in Tibagi, which was comfortable. 17 September: Drove from Tibagi to Curitiba then back to Sao Paolo. NW of Curitiba we stopped at a dirt road near Sete Salto and found Spotted Nothura and Sharp-tailed Tyrant. I caught a 21:55 flight back to the US. Brazil 3rd to 18th September 2006.
