  • Colombia Mega II 1St – 30Th November 2016 (30 Days) Trip Report
    Colombia Mega II 1st – 30th November 2016 (30 Days) Trip Report Black Manakin by Trevor Ellery Trip Report compiled by tour leader: Trevor Ellery Trip Report – RBL Colombia - Mega II 2016 2 ___________________________________________________________________________________ Top ten birds of the trip as voted for by the Participants: 1. Ocellated Tapaculo 6. Blue-and-yellow Macaw 2. Rainbow-bearded Thornbill 7. Red-ruffed Fruitcrow 3. Multicolored Tanager 8. Sungrebe 4. Fiery Topaz 9. Buffy Helmetcrest 5. Sword-billed Hummingbird 10. White-capped Dipper Tour Summary This was one again a fantastic trip across the length and breadth of the world’s birdiest nation. Highlights were many and included everything from the flashy Fiery Topazes and Guianan Cock-of- the-Rocks of the Mitu lowlands to the spectacular Rainbow-bearded Thornbills and Buffy Helmetcrests of the windswept highlands. In between, we visited just about every type of habitat that it is possible to bird in Colombia and shared many special moments: the diminutive Lanceolated Monklet that perched above us as we sheltered from the rain at the Piha Reserve, the showy Ochre-breasted Antpitta we stumbled across at an antswarm at Las Tangaras Reserve, the Ocellated Tapaculo (voted bird of the trip) that paraded in front of us at Rio Blanco, and the male Vermilion Cardinal, in all his crimson glory, that we enjoyed in the Guajira desert on the final morning of the trip. If you like seeing lots of birds, lots of specialities, lots of endemics and enjoy birding in some of the most stunning scenery on earth, then this trip is pretty unbeatable.

  • Ecological Report April 2017 Inkaterra Association
    ECOLOGICAL REPORT APRIL 2017 INKATERRA ASSOCIATION I. POINT COUNTS REPORT 1.1. SAMPLING ÁREA: Inkaterra Guides Field Station - Palmetum 1.2. DATE: April 06th, 2017 1.3. STARTING HOUR: 5:35 h CLOSING HOUR: 7:25 h 1.4. PARTICIPANTS: Noe Huaraca y Andreina Méndez 1.5. OBJECTIVES: 1.5.1 To complement bird wildlife diversity monitoring by including canopy and underbrush forest bird species of Inkaterra Guides Field Station. 1.5.2 To establish the registered bird species' abundance parameters patterns. 1.5.3 To understand the differences between bird wildlife compositions according by its habitat. 1.6. METODOLOGÍA: The Point Count method (Ralph et al., 1995; Ralph, 1996; MINAM, 2015) was employed, which consists in staying at a point station for 10 minutes, while recording all the birds seen and heard. The distance between points is 150 meters. This month, the evaluation was performed at the trail way depicted by Image 1. Inkaterra Guides Field Station Palmetum Image 1. Sampling area and Point Counts map 1.7. RESULTS: 8 point stations were evaluated, where 64 subjects were registered, all belonging to 19 Families and 11 Orders. All registered subjects indicated a richness of 46 species. The richest Order was Passeriformes with 21 species and 7 families (Thamnophilidae, Cotingidae, Formicariidae, Furnariidae, Icteridae, Trogloditydae y Tyrannidae), next were Psittaciformes (macaws, parrots and perakeet) with 6 species and 1 family, Galbuliformes (jacamar), and finally, Columbiformes (pigeons) with 4 species and 1 family per each one. Among the bird species registered, the most relatively abundant were parrots; the Pionus menstruus species (Blue headed Parrot) showed the highest number of subjects registered while flying (n=11), all spotted at counting point 2 (n=7) and counting point 3 (n=4).

  • Predation on Vertebrates by Neotropical Passerine Birds Leonardo E

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We investigated if passerine birds act as important predators of small vertebrates within the Neotropics. We surveyed published studies on bird diets, and information on labels of museum specimens, compiling data on the contents of 5,221 stomachs. Eighteen samples (0.3%) presented evidence of predation on vertebrates. Our bibliographic survey also provided records of 203 passerine species preying upon vertebrates, mainly frogs and lizards. Our data suggest that vertebrate predation by passerines is relatively uncommon in the Neotropics and not characteristic of any family. On the other hand, although rare, the ability to prey on vertebrates seems to be widely distributed among Neotropical passerines, which may respond opportunistically to the stimulus of a potential food item.
