One of the rarest of Peru birds (seen on about 3 times since re- discovery, we (6 of us) spent about 10 minutes fanning through puna in the Ancash Dept. where they'd been recently reported. One flushed at our feet and circled back past us. Yippee, Yippee, Yippee!!! Ornate Tinamou (Nothoprocta ornata). Daniel watched two above the lake in the upper Santa Eulalia valley; and the rest of us were able to get one to flush a few minutes later. Andean Tinamou (Nothoprocta pentlandii). We had a quick view in the lower Santa Eulalia valley, but the best was a bird seen for a few seconds in flight right after we had seen the Russet-backed Spinetails near San Damian.

  • Ultimate Chile Tour Report 2019
    The stunning Many-colored Rush Tyrant gave amazing views during the tour (all photos by DLV). ULTIMATE CHILE 12 - 26 / 31 OCTOBER 2019 LEADER: DANI LOPEZ-VELASCO 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Ultimate Chile 2019 www.birdquest-tours.com This year´s Chile tour was quite possibly our most successful ever to this fantastic country. Once again, our Ultimate Chile tour produced all of the mainland Chilean endemics, with great views of both Chestnut-throated and Black-throated Huet-Huets, an astonishing wader spectacle of 41 (¡!) species, including Diademed Sandpiper-Plover, Magellanic Plover, Peruvian Thick-knee, Tawny-throated and Rufous-chested Dotterels and Rufous-bellied Seedsnipe. Our two main pelagics, and various ferry crossings, delivered 19 species of tubenoses with highlights of Southern and Northern Royal and Buller´s Albatrosses, many Pincoya Storm- Petrels off Chiloe and hundreds of Markham´s and a single Ringed (Hornby´s) Storm-Petrels off Iquique. Seeing all 4 possible tinamous, including the extremely rare Patagonian, as well as Ornate, Puna and Chilean, was a real highlight too. In all, we observed an all-time record 321 species, plus some 21 species of mammal, amongst which a total of 11 (yes, ELEVEN) PUMAS clearly stands out. As we travelled almost the entire spine of Chile we sampled three major biomes including several vast wilderness areas, from the Atacama desert to the high Andes and through Patagonian forests to the Magellanic and Fuegian tundra steppe. Other unforgettable highlights, from north to south, included, the critically

  • Punta Balcones, Talara, Peru
    BIRD TOURISM REPORTS 7/2017 Petri Hottola PUNTA BALCONES, TALARA, PERU Fig. 1. Faro Negritos, a natural sea observation point at Punta Balcones, Peru. In June 2016, I made my second self-organized visit in North Peru, birding eight days there, between the Piura coast and Tarapoto in San Martin, east of the Andes. The arrival in Piura was delayed by more than 30 hours, thanks to the unreliability of American Airlines, with a canceled flight, rerouting and several delays in a row, and with a Latam delay between Lima and Piura. The last delay was not about bad management: a small plane crashed on the runway in Lima. Twice, I had to inform my car rental company in Piura that I would not arrive according to the original or rerouted schedule. American Airlines helped with the calls. At Lima Airport, three hours were slept at a Wyndham Costa del Sol USD 380 room, on the expense of American Airlines. Unfortunately, the delays also meant that I had to start my driving in Peru at night. 21st to 22nd June, I traveled from Piura to Talara, on the coast, and birded there for the following morning, because the nearby Punta Balcones appeared ideal for seawatching, at least on my maps. The following trip report has been made to explain the situation there for other potential visitors. Despite its favorable location, in theory, the peninsula proved to be not as good for seabird observations as it had appeared, at least not at the time of my visit. Nevertheless, the area had potential for bird observations, notably in regard to coastal species, and also for seabirds, in a more favorable weather.

    From Oslo with love: Erling Kagge's art collection goes on show ART/ 1 JUN 2015 /BY WESSIE DU TOIT Kagge has a special affinity for artist Trisha Donnelly. Pictured here is 'Untitled' (2007), 'Enam- el on fabric,' and 'Portikus, Frankfurt am Main' installation (2010). Photograph courtesy of Astrup Fearnley Museum. Around the waterfront in Oslo, you can experience what the director of Norway’s In- stitute for Contemporary Art has called the city’s ‘dynamic moment’. Scaffolding sig- nals a new wave of cultural destinations that will join existing gems such as the Opera House, the ambitious Ekeberg sculpture park, and a high concentration of artist-run spaces. Beside the Oslofjord is the sweeping glass roof of the Renzo Piano-designed Astrup Fearnley Museum, which now houses an intriguing collection of contemporary art, titled Love Story. It belongs to Arctic explorer, lawyer, publisher, and all-round thrill- seeker Erling Kagge. Having sailed repeatedly across the Atlantic, conquered the ‘Three Poles’ - North, South, and the summit of Everest - and reached the cover of Time magazine, Kagge began to seek challenges from the world of art. The result is a collection that empha- sises youthful anarchy, pop euphoria, and probing post-conceptual artists. Kagge’s collection includes comprehensive bodies of Raymond Pettibon, Franz West, Tauba Auerbach, Trisha Donnelly, Sergej Jenson, Klara Lidén and Wolfgang Tillmans. In a book he has published for the exhibition, A Poor Collector’s Guide to Buying Great Art, Kagge compares collecting to his exploits as an explorer. He likes to gamble on artists early in their careers, buying them in big quantities, and moving on when they become established.

We began our adventure in the Peruvian coast where we visit some locations. Starting in the Villa Wetlands where we had a good introduction to Peruvian birds, all the way to Ica, where based at our hotel Las Dunas we were able to explore the area by land, boat and even by air! Chilean Flamingos, Humboldt Penguins, Red-legged Cormorants, Surf Cinclodes, the colorful but common Vermilion Flycatcher and several wader species freshly arrives from north America, just to mention few of the birds we saw in this section of the trip. The rainforest section was a blast. Visiting the tower in ARA and being eye-level with some of those canopy dwellers was certainly a highlight for this trip.
