Friday, 18th January: The group were picked up from Rio’s International airport at 11.00 by our driver, Serginho. There is not much birding to be done on the way up from Rio, but the group did manage to pick up Magnificent Frigatebird, Cattle Egret and Great White Egret.

The group arrived well at the wonderful Itororo Lodge and were greeted by myself, and Rainer and Bettina, our hosts for the week ahead. Itororo Lodge acts as a great base for the Rockjumper tour, situated at an elevation of 1,200m and surrounded by forest, it offers a cool climate and endless amounts of ! Whilst the bags were being unloaded from the minibus, we started to get to grips with the birds coming into the feeders that are located at the front of the lodge. We were soon getting our first Atlantic forest endemics and various other species, including White-throated Hummingbird, Brazilian Ruby, Violet- capped Woodnymph, Black Jacobin, Ruby- Brassy-breasted Tanager on the Itororo Lodge feeders crowned Tanager, Brassy-breasted Tanager, (©Andy Foster) Golden-chevroned Tanager, Burnished-buff Tanager, Maroon-bellied Parakeet, Rufous-bellied Thrush, Sayaca Tanager, Bananaquit, Grey-fronted Dove, Slaty-breasted Wood Rail (for some) and, of course, our resident Rufous-collared Sparrows!

After lunch, we had a quick briefing on the lodge and surroundings and then had a short break before meeting up again to some of the forest around the lodge. The plan was to walk the White Trail this afternoon; however, there was a big thunderstorm, so we stayed close to the lodge to wait for the weather to settle before heading off. We used some playback and called in Green-backed , this was followed by a Chestnut-crowned Becard. The weather quickly improved, so we set off towards the trail. Soon after leaving the lodge, we came across an amazing mixed flock! It was difficult to know where to look, Orange-eyed Thornbird (©Andy Foster) but we quickly prioritised certain species (mainly the endemics) and soon started getting good views of some excellent birds, including Chestnut- headed Tanager, Orange-eyed Thornbird, Scaled , Buff-fronted Foliage-gleaner, Variable Antshrike, Olivaceous Woodcreeper, Lineated Woodpecker, Planalto Tyrannulet, Rough-legged Tyrannulet, Mottle-cheeked Tyrannulet, Yellow-olive Flatbill, Cliff Flycatcher, Crested Becard, Rufous-

browed Peppershrike, Rufous-crowned Greenlet, Black-goggled Tanager, Saffron Finch and Green- winged Saltator! What a way to start the tour!

After the flock had moved through, we continued towards the White Trail, picking up various species along the way including Sick’s Swift, Plumbeous Pigeon, Yellow- browed Woodpecker, Ochre-faced Tody- Flycatcher, Rufous-capped Spinetail, Lesser Woodcreeper, Whiskered Myiobius, Sepia- capped Flycatcher and Golden-crowned Warbler. It was now almost 18.00, and we still hadn’t actually made it to the White Trail! It had been such a productive first afternoon that we started heading back to the lodge. We met up again at 18.30 for dinner, followed by our first checklist of the tour. During this, we had another new bird appear Spot-billed Toucanet (©Andy Foster) at the feeders, a Dusky-legged Guan!

Saturday, 19th January: We met up just before breakfast at 05.50, and with it still being dark there was not much to look at! As it lightened up a little, Ben spotted a Blond-crested Woodpecker in the avocado tree – stunning bird! Breakfast was served at 06.00, and by 06.30 we were heading off for a full day’s birding on the Macae de Cima trail. From our first stop just after 07.00 until our last stop at 16.15, it was pretty much non-stop new birds! Such a great day’s birding with so many highlights, it’s hard to know where to start! We encountered a couple of very productive mixed flocks with species such as White-rimmed Warbler, Sharp- billed Treehunter, Grey-capped Tyrannulet, White-browed Foliage-gleaner, Star-throated Antwren, Plain Antvireo, Rufous-crowned Greenlet, Orange-eyed Thornbird and Buff- fronted Foliage-gleaner.

Other standout species for the day included Ochre-rumped , Bertoni’s Antbird, White-bearded Antshrike, Rufous-capped Antshrike, Spix’s Spinetail, Rufous-breasted Dusky-tailed Antbird (©Andy Foster) Leaftosser, White-bibbed Antbird, Surucua Trogon, Brad’s Bare-throated Bellbird(!), Spot-billed Toucanet, White-collared Foliage-gleaner, Greenish Schiffornis, White-barred Piculet, Pin-tailed Manakin, Blue Manakin, Squirrel Cuckoo, Sharp- tailed Streamcreeper, Dusky-tailed Antbird, Rufous Gnateater and Long-tailed Tyrant.

However, I think one of the firm favourites of the day was, without a doubt, the Large-tailed Antshrike that just popped out into the open (see front cover)! Such a rare occurrence for this bird to act like this, we were very privileged to see this bird so well!

Upon arrival back at the lodge, some of the group were lucky enough to have a White- rumped Hawk and a Zone-tailed Hawk fly over within a few minutes of each other. Ben also picked up a Pale-breasted Thrush in the avocado tree. A very productive day was followed by dinner at 18.30 and then the completion of our daily checklist.

Sunday, 20th January: As usual, we met up at 06.00 for breakfast – there had been a big storm at 03.00, but thankfully we had avoided the rain! Serginho arrived at 06.20, and we departed just after 06.30 for an hour’s drive to our first stop on the way to White-barred Piculet (©Andy Foster) Duas Barras for some open country birding. On our way through Nova Friburgo, it had clearly rained there and there were big dark clouds in the direction we were heading. Thankfully, the weather slowly cleared up and we had perfect conditions for the day’s birding.

Again, this was a very productive day with over 100 species being seen! We had several stops on the road towards Duas Barras, picking up species such as Blue-winged Macaw, Streamer-tailed Tyrant, Yellow-browed Tyrant, Savanna Hawk, Gilt-edged Tanager, Crescent-chested Puffbird, Firewood Gatherer, Lesser Yellow-headed Vulture, Grassland Yellow Finch, Hangnest Tody-Tyrant, White-tailed Hawk, White-collared Swift, Biscutate Swift, Sapphire-spangled Emerald, Hooded Siskin, Yellow-eared Woodpecker, Green- barred Woodpecker, Band-tailed Hornero, Rufous Hornero, Rufous Gnateater, Cattle Tyrant, Southern Beardless Tyrannulet, White-winged Becard, White-browed Blackbird and Wedge-tailed Grassfinch.

After an excellent couple of hours of birding, we drove down into the small town of Duas Barras, where we stopped for a coffee and cake and to use the bathroom. 30 minutes later, we were on our way again and Crescent-chested Puffbird (©Andy Foster) joining the dirt road that took us through to the main road towards Sumidouro. We birded the dirt road for a couple of hours, picking up lots of new birds, including White-eared Puffbird, Grey-eyed Greenlet, Short-crested Flycatcher, Yellow-lored

Tody-Flycatcher, White-rumped Monjita, Black-capped Donacobius, Chestnut-capped Blackbird, Half- collared Sparrow, Swallow Tanager, and Linda picked up a distant Red-legged Seriema. This was followed by another Lesser Yellow-headed Vulture, and Ben spotted a rather nice Aplomado Falcon.

We had lunch under some nice shady bamboo, where we picked up Curl-crested Jay and then took a 30-minute drive towards the town of Sumidouro. Shortly after Sumidouro, we arrived at the jacamar site, the sun was blazing down on the spot as usual! I played just 2 seconds of playback and, thankfully, two Three-toed Jacamars flew in above us, giving some excellent views. Nice to have it respond so quickly! We also picked up distant scope views of White Woodpecker and a pair of Campo Flickers. A tailless Hangnest Tody-Tyrant! (©Andy Foster)

It was 14.30 as we started to make our way back towards the lodge, with one other stop on the way. At this last spot, we picked up three new species, these were Whistling Heron, Yellow-chinned Spinetail and Common Tody-Flycatcher. We arrived back at the lodge just after 16.30, and had some free time up until dinner at 18.30, this was followed by the daily checklist.

Monday, 21st January: We awoke to another lovely morning, meeting up at 06.00 for breakfast as usual. Today, we were to spend a full day in the lodge grounds. We waited for the sun to come up a little more before heading off into the forest. Whilst waiting on the decking area in front of the lodge, we managed to pick up Pallid Spinetail, Grey-capped Tyrannulet (better views) and, thankfully, a Blond-crested Woodpecker for those that had missed it a couple of days ago, so a very good start to the day!

We set off towards the White Trail and soon started to get new birds. Elena spotted a Black-throated Trogon that gave good views for the group. Whilst we were watching it, Brad called out that he had an antshrike. We moved over to where he was and used some playback for Giant Antshrike. Shortly afterwards, it popped into the tree in front of us, giving some great views!

We moved down the track and played some Saffron Toucanet but, unfortunately, had no response. I decided it was time to head up the White Trail and go for some Ant-things! Blond-crested Woodpecker (©Andy Foster) I started by playing Cryptic Antthrush. We

got a response almost instantly, and slowly but surely the antthrush appeared, but didn’t stay for long, with only 3 of the group getting onto it. Next up, I played some Variegated Antpitta. Again, we got quite a quick response, so I climbed down the bank and planted the speaker in the forest. We continued with playback and, suddenly, the antpitta hopped through on the ground underneath the speaker! Not everyone saw it well, so I continued playing it. It flew over the track and finally got up on a branch some 2 metres above the ground. Gimme spotted it, and after a little effort we managed to get everyone in position and get the scope on it, landing fantastic views for the whole group!

We tried a little more for the Cryptic Antthrush, but to no avail. Next, I started to play for Black- billed Scythebill, we got a very distant response and nothing more. We continued to the end of the White Trail and played for White-breasted Giant Antshrike (©Andy Foster) Tapaculo, but no response. I tried a little more for scythebill and it appeared to be closer. During this time, the Cryptic Antthrush started to call again. I placed the speaker down the path and got the bird to fly over. It gave brief views, but at least everyone had seen it. We would try again for this later in the week.

Back to the scythebill, and more playback got another response. I recorded the bird’s call and played it back, thankfully it finally came in a couple of times and gave good views for most of the group. We headed back down the trail and came across a mixed flock with Buff- browed Foliage-gleaner, White-collared Foliage-gleaner, Black-goggled Tanager, Lesser Woodcreeper, Whiskered Myiobius and Olivaceous Woodcreeper. We tried for Serra do Mar Tyrant-Manakin and only got a distant response. A fairly tough morning’s birding, but with some great species being Variegated Antpitta (©Andy Foster) seen well!

We arrived back at the lodge at midday and had a break before lunch at 13.00. After lunch, we met up again at 14.30 and headed off to bird the first section of the Blue Trail in search of a few missing ! It turned out to be a very quiet afternoon, nothing was vocalising apart from the bellbirds. We did get a response from a Rufous-tailed Antthrush that appeared to be coming closer at one moment, but unfortunately it didn’t! We did, however, get a nice perched Scale-throated Hermit which sat still for the whole group to enjoy!

A storm was brewing. With the thunder getting closer and it starting to rain, we started to slowly head back towards the lodge, picking up a Fawn-breasted Tanager on the way. As we arrived back at the lodge the rain had stopped, so we headed over to a spot that overlooks a valley on the lodge grounds to scan and use some playback for Saffron Toucanet, but it wasn’t to be! We headed off to our rooms at 17.30 and met back up again for dinner at 18.30, followed by the checklist. We waited a little for it to get darker and set off into the forest to try and find some owls. It’s a tough time of year for owls, but we used playback for a few species, nonetheless. Unfortunately, we only got a response from Tropical Screech Owl. We walked the White Trail trying for various species, and returned to the lodge shortly after 21.00.

Tuesday, 22nd January: It was another beautifully clear morning as we met up for breakfast at 06.00. By 06.40, we had departed for the 50-minute drive to Pico da Caledonia for some high-altitude birding. The weather was perfect: nice and cool with the sun starting to warm things up, and the birds were becoming active.

We started our walk up Caledonia from around 1,650m in altitude – we were to walk up to the top at 2,200m. The morning started well, with a small family party of Swallow-tailed that gave the group very nice views. We continued and were soon picking up more new species, including Black-and- gold , Rufous-tailed Antbird, Bay-chested Warbling Finch, Diademed Tanager, Serra do Mar Tyrannulet and Blue-billed Black Tyrant. The walk up Caledonia is quite steep, but with plenty of stops along the way for birds, we soon found ourselves getting higher and up into Grey-winged Cotinga habitat – one of our main targets of the day. Grey- winged Cotinga is an extremely range- restricted bird, being found on just 2 peaks in south-east Brazil. Nearing the Grey-winged Cotinga area, John said he had a cotinga sized bird perched up. I went around to see but, unfortunately, it flew off. We used some playback but without any response. I heard a Rufous-backed Antvireo, and after using some playback a pair of them came in and perched above us.

We decided to walk up a little higher to get a view of the canopy, and started to scan for the The very rare and endemic Grey-winged Cotinga (©Andy Foster) cotinga. Brad spotted it but, unfortunately, it

flew before anybody else could get on it. We used a little more playback and it flew past us into the canopy…vanishing! A little more playback saw the bird fly into the tree opposite us, giving the whole group great views and photo opportunities! With this target bird seen well, we continued up the mountain and started picking up our first Green-crowned Plovercrests, all females for now. Further up, we got to a grassy area and had a break and a bit of a scan, playing for Thick-billed Saltator at the same time.

We pressed on up towards the security guards’ hut. Once again, this was locked, so we found an alternative entrance and started the walk to the base of the 625 steps that would take us up to the top of the peak, where we hoped to see Itatiaia Spinetail – another rare and range-restricted endemic from south-east Brazil. Just before the steps, we picked up good views of Velvety- black Tyrant and also our first male Plovercrest, stunning! We also managed to pick up a distant Cinnamon Tanager.

We used some playback for the spinetail at the base of the steps, hoping we would call Bay-chested Warbling Finch (©Andy Foster) one in and not have to walk any further! Unfortunately, this would not be the case, and we ended up climbing around 550 steps before getting great views of this rare little bird! We were so close to the top that we decided to go all the way up and had our picnic lunch at the top with stunning views!

It was now nearing 12.30, so we started to head back down with just 2 targets to get: Mouse-colored Tapaculo and Thick- billed Saltator. Clouds were starting to build up, so we quickened our pace a little as we didn’t want to get caught in a thunderstorm! We passed a spot with Mouse-colored Tapaculo calling. After a little playback, we had 2 of them come in, giving some good views. Now with thunder starting to rumble, we got to a reliable spot for the Thick-billed Saltator and used some playback and got a response. Within a couple of minutes, we Green-crowned Plovercrest (©Andy Foster) had good views of one in a tree above us!

30 minutes later, we arrived back at the minibus and took a 5-minute drive to another spot. Thick black clouds were now rolling down Caledonia, our timing could not have been better! We managed to call in a Red-legged Seriema that came in really close, which was a lovely way to end the day. With heavy rain

now starting to fall, we climbed aboard the minibus and Serginho drove us back to the lodge for some fresh homemade apple cake, tea, coffee and a nice cold beer for some!

We spent some time on the decking area by the lodge, with Brassy-breasted Tanagers and various other species coming in and out of the feeders. We also had a small mixed flock go through that had Chestnut-crowned Becard, Buff-fronted Foliage-gleaner, Scaled Woodcreeper and Olivaceous Woodcreeper, all giving good views. We met up for dinner at 18.30. followed by our daily checklist as usual.

Wednesday, 23rd January: Once again, we awoke to another beautifully clear morning! Breakfast was served at 06.00, and by 06.30 Scaled Woodcreeper from the deck at Itororo Lodge we were departing for a 40-minute drive to (©Andy Foster) the start of the Cedae Trail, located at approximately 550m in altitude. Prior to birding this trail, we stopped off at some local feeders where we got great views of several new species that included Green- headed Tanager, Red-necked Tanager, Violaceous Euphonia, Chestnut-bellied Euphonia and a distant Channel-billed Toucan. A very good start to the day! After about 30 minutes at the feeders, we took the 5-minute drive back up the road and spent the rest of the morning birding the Cedae Trail.

Birding started off slowly, with not very much responding to playback; however, as the sun started to get a little higher in the sky, birds started to vocalise and we were soon picking up our first new species along the trail. These included White-throated Spadebill, Spot-breasted Antvireo, Streak- capped Antwren, a small family party of Grey-hooded Attilas, Black-cheeked Gnateater and, a little further down the track, a small flock of Olive-green Tanagers! We used playback for several different species as we made our way further down the trail, Green-headed Tanager (©Andy Foster) but with little response.

Finally, activity started to pick up again, and some of the group got onto a Saw-billed Hermit that Brad found, we also had good views of a Spot-backed Antshrike, Versicolored Emerald, Eared Pygmy Tyrant, several Plain Parakeets that flew over, Ochre-breasted Foliage-gleaner and Orange-bellied Euphonia.

On the way back up the trail I spotted something up ahead, to our surprise and excitement, it was a pair of Saffron Toucanets! They moved towards us and then, after a little playback, flew into a cecropia tree in the middle of a clearing, giving the group fantastic views! We also managed to get good views of Plain-winged Woodcreeper and a rather nice Black-throated Grosbeak.

We arrived back at the minibus at around 12.30, and took a 10-minute drive up the road to the start of the Theodoro Trail, where we had lunch. After this, we spent the remainder of the afternoon birding along the Theodoro Trail. The trail runs through some nice forest at an altitude of 1,100m. Again, it started a little slow as it was quite hot, but eventually we had a very productive afternoon, picking up good views of White-browed Foliage- gleaner, White-throated Woodcreeper, Planalto Woodcreeper, Ochre-breasted Foliage-gleaner, Black-billed Scythebill and White-shouldered Fire-eye. We arrived back at the minibus at 17.15 and got back to the lodge just before 18.00. We met up again for dinner at 18.30, followed by the checklist as usual. Saffron Toucanet (©Andy Foster)

Thursday, 24th January: Amazingly, it was another clear and beautiful day as we met up for breakfast – such good luck with the weather this week! Today, we were to spend the day birding the wetlands and lowland forest at Regua. Upon arrival at Regua, we quickly got our day packs together (with our packed lunches etc.) and set off around the side of the wetlands towards the forest. We were soon picking up new species, having not birded at such low altitude up until now. The first new birds included Black- bellied Whistling Duck, Wattled Jacana, Chestnut-backed Antshrike, Grey-necked Wood Rail, Greater Ani, Grey-rumped Swift, Amazon and Ringed Kingfishers and Common Gallinule.

As we continued around the wetlands, we also picked up Cattle Egret, Rufescent Tiger Heron, Boat-billed Heron, Striated Heron and Black-crowned Night Heron. We used some playback to call in a Sooretama Slaty Antshrike, one of our main targets for the day. As we started to head into the forest, we had some Red- rumped Caciques fly into a close tree, these were then joined by a stunning male Brazilian Tanager, another good target bird in the bag! Next up were some Silvery-flanked Antwrens, followed by Silvery-flanked Antwren (©Andy Foster) Unicolored Antwren. After some effort,

Rockjumper Birding Tours View more tours to Brazil Trip Report – RBL Brazil - Atlantic Coastal Forest I 2019 11

we also managed to get good views of Southern Antpipit followed by a Rufous-breasted Hermit for some. It was already starting to warm up, but we had already seen quite a few of our target birds. Further on into forest, we used playback to call in a Rufous-capped Motmot that gave good scope views, this was followed by Eye-ringed Tody-Tyrant high up in some vines…. that bird would just not sit still!!

Further along, we used playback for Scaled Antbird. Within a few minutes, Brad had spotted one coming in. After further playback, it showed well for the whole group. We also had a Reddish Hermit come in and check us out! Things were going well when we soon picked up an Ochre- bellied Flycatcher, followed by a Long- billed Wren, we all had reasonable views of this lowland endemic. We stopped for lunch and then started some playback for White-eyed Foliage-gleaner. One came in very fast and, unfortunately, gave incredibly brief views. Shortly afterwards, Brazilian Tanager (©Andy Foster) I heard a White-chinned Sapphire calling. We used some playback and managed to call it in to sit above us, where it gave some amazing scope views! We also picked up a Lesser Woodcreeper, followed shortly afterwards by a White-throated Woodcreeper. Amazing how we had tried so hard to see the White- throated Woodcreeper over the week, and suddenly we had one right in front of us without any playback…. that’s birding! A little later, we came across a small mixed flock with both Yellow-backed and Flame-crested Tanagers, Yellow- eared Woodpecker and Olivaceous Woodcreeper.

Linda spotted a Brown-throated Three- toed Sloth. By the time we got there, it was already on the move, with only some of the group managing to see it. Just as we arrived back at the wetlands, Ben picked up a Rufous-tailed Jacamar that showed well for the group.

We arrived back at the minibus just after 15.00. It was boiling hot and we had White-throated Woodcreeper (©Andy Foster) already seen so many great birds, so we decided to head back to the lodge, with one stop on the way to scan for Mantled Hawk. We pulled up by the side of the forest and started to scan. After a while and a few false alarms (!), I managed to spot a Mantled Hawk way in the distance, but with the scope all was good!

Nearing the lodge, we were delayed for a while as there was a fire on the neighbouring property, so we had to wait for clearance to get past. This took some 20 minutes, with us arriving back at the lodge just after 17.00. Stephanie had spent the day at the lodge and got some lovely views Magpie Tanagers on the feeders! The night was occupied with dinner and the checklist.

Friday, 25th January: Our last morning of the tour was unfortunately upon us – time had just flown by! We spent the first few hours birding the Itororo Lodge grounds in search of some very difficult birds! We had had a very successful week, so there were only the hardest of the species left to find this morning. We had a small target list and after a lot of effort, we managed to see two of these targets! First up was a Drab-breasted Bamboo Tyrant. This responded well to playback and gave the group good views! We tried for Grey-bellied Spinetail and White-breasted Tapaculo in the same Yellow-eared Woodpecker (©Andy Foster) spot, but had no response. We then made our way into the orchid garden valley and tried for Spotted Bamboowren, Tufted Antshrike and Spot-winged Wood Quail – the latter we actually got a response from but, unfortunately, they refused to come any closer. We did, however, manage to get views of a pair of Uniform Finches in the surrounding bamboo, another new bird! There was a Cryptic Antthrush calling close by. I recorded some of its song and played it back. The bird slowly came forward and crossed the path in front of us, giving most of the group a brief but good view of this Atlantic forest endemic. We also got nice views of another female Pin-tailed Manakin.

We arrived back at the lodge by 10.00, the group had some time to pack before lunch was served at 11.45 due to a departure time of 12.30. After lunch, we completed our final checklist for the tour. Serginho arrived, we loaded up the minibus and said our final farewells!

It had been a very successful week, the weather had treated us very well with just a small downpour earlier on in the week – very good birding conditions for this time of year! Thanks once again to Rainer and Bettina at Itororo Lodge for Female Pin-tailed Manakin (©Andy Foster) looking after us all so well!
