    Spot-winged Wood Quail, one of the many Atlantic Forest specials on the tour (Eduardo Patrial) ULTIMATE SOUTHEAST BRAZIL 5 - 19 November / 1 December 2018 LEADER: EDUARDO PATRIAL The world-famous Ultimate Southeast Brazil tour, which shows the best from the Atlantic Forest, is back in 2018 packed with a list of 580 species of birds recorded. From that, ninety four (94) genuine Brazilian endemics were seen on the tour, besides over a hundred and twenty Atlantic Forest endemic birds. It is true to say the el niño affected weather conditions this time, turning into a much wetter trip if compared to the last ones, especially when at Espirito Santo state. But even so the Atlantic Forest kept its high level and results were again fantastic. It’s easy to remember some of the great birds seen from the beginning to the end of this remarkable trip, to mention some nice Cracidae as Red-billed Curassow, Black-fronted Piping Guan and East Brazilian and Scaled Chachalacas; a great time with the night birding – Tawny-browed, Mottled and Rusty- barred Owls, Tropical, Long-tufted and Black-capped Screech Owls, the rare White-winged Potoo, Long- trained and Sickle-winged Nightjars; a fine selection of hummingbirds with Saw-billed, Scale-throated, Dusky- throated and Minute Hermits, the amazing Frilled and Festive Coquettes, Green-crowned and Purple-crowned 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Ultimate Southeast Brazil 2018. www.birdquest-tours.com Plovercrests; some of the nicest toucans and woodpeckers – Green-billed Toucan, Saffron and Spot-billed Toucanets, Yellow-fronted,

  • Colombia, February-March 2016
    Tropical Birding Trip Report Colombia, February-March 2016 Colombia February 25th to March 10th, 2016 TOUR LEADER: Nick Athanas Report and photos by Nick Athanas White-whiskered Spinetail – bird of the trip! It had been a while since I had guided a Colombia trip, and I had forgotten how neat the birds were! This two week customized tour combined a Northern Colombia trip with some of the best sites in Central Colombia. The weather was beautiful, the birds were spectacular and cooperative, and most importantly we had a fun and friendly group; we all had a blast. Custom trips are a great option for groups of friends that like to travel together, and it really worked well this time. I really love that White-whiskered Spinetail was voted “bird of the trip” – it’s the only time I can remember a spinetail winning that honor – it’s an often unappreciated group, but this one is really special and we had point-blank views. Runner up was Santa Marta Antbird, which was also highly deserving as one of the newest splits of a truly www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-9110 [email protected] Tropical Birding Trip Report Colombia, February-March 2016 amazing genus. Other favorites were Golden-winged Sparrow, Russet-throated Puffbird, Scarlet Ibis, Turquoise Dacnis, Blue-billed Curassow, Red-bellied Grackle, Sword-billed Hummer, Crested Owl, Chestnut Piculet, Striped Manakin, and shockingly, even a couple of tapaculos, which impressed some by showing amazingly well. We started off in the “megapolis” of Bogotá, which served as our base for the first few nights as we made day trips to nearby sites in the eastern cordillera of the Andes.

  • Brazil Nutshell: Intervales, Iguazu Falls & the Pantanal 2016
    Field Guides Tour Report Brazil Nutshell: Intervales, Iguazu Falls & the Pantanal 2016 Mar 5, 2016 to Mar 19, 2016 Marcelo Padua & Megan Edwards Crewe For our tour description, itinerary, past triplists, dates, fees, and more, please VISIT OUR TOUR PAGE. The endangered Black-fronted Piping-Guan is one of the signature birds of the Atlantic Forest. Photo by participants David and Sue Wright. When we came up with the name "Nutshell" for this tour a few years ago, it had a double meaning: a play on the name of the well-known (and mighty tasty) Brazil nut as well as a harkening to the phrase "that's it in a nutshell", because, well, it IS Brazil in a nutshell -- a relatively short, but very productive, introduction to some of the amazing habitats found in this huge country. We started our tour at Intervales State Park, a lovely natural area only a few hours outside of Cuiabá. Although mostly cloaked in Atlantic Forest -- a fast-dwindling biome, fragments of which now contain some of the world's rarest birds -- the hilly park also contains some attractive wet spots and a few open areas. We had so many highlights here that it's hard to know where to start! Furtive Red-and-white Crakes darted out from surrounding reeds to gobble quick mouthfuls of corn. A tiny, confiding Spotted Bamboowren crept through a bamboo stand nearly at arm's length. A pair of Blue-bellied Parrots peered down at us, whistling their surprisingly musical song. Black-fronted Piping-Guans rummaged in treetops.

It sits atop 900-foot Semaphore Hill overlooking Soberania National Park. While its rooms are rather spartan, the food is Panama’s Canopy Tower © Ruthie Stearns excellent and the opportunity to view birds at dawn from the 360º rooftop Observation Deck above the treetops is outstanding. Twenty minutes away is the start of the famous Pipeline Road, possibly one of the best birding roads in Central and South America. From our base, daily birding outings are made to various locations in Central Panama, which vary from the primary forest around the tower, to huge mudflats near Panama City and, finally, to cool Cerro Azul and Cerro Jefe forest. An enticing example of what awaits visitors to this marvelous birding paradise can be found in excerpts taken from the Journal I write during every tour and later e- mail to participants. These are taken from my 17-page, January 2019 Journal. On our first day at Canopy Tower, with 5 of the 8 participants having arrived, we were touring the Observation Deck on top of Canopy Tower when Ruthie looked up and called my attention to a bird flying in our direction...it was a Black Hawk-Eagle! I called down to others on the floor below and we watched it disappear into the distant clouds.

    Tropical Birding - Trip Report BRAZIL: The Atlantic Forest Introtour, Jan 2017 A Tropical Birding SET DEPARTURE tour BRAZIL: THE ATLANTIC FOREST INTROTOUR 10-17 September 2017 TOUR LEADER: ANDRES VASQUEZ Photos by Andres Vasquez One of the endemic Brazilian tanagers, the gorgeous Rufous-headed Tanager www.tropicalbirding.com +1-409-515-9110 [email protected] p.1 Tropical Birding - Trip Report BRAZIL: The Atlantic Forest Introtour, Jan 2017 INTRODUCTION: This short tour is a great hit due to many reasons. Bird-wise it produces lots of Brazilian endemics that often come in the shape of the most beautifully colored tanagers or the nicest patterned antbirds not to mention some extravagant hummingbirds and elegant cotingas. Scenery-wise, we travel in some beautiful landscapes from the lowland rainforest to the bamboo-dominated highland forest, and from the coastline to the drier interior. This trip is designed to give the opportunity to travelers that cannot spend a long time away from home so they can see a large number of Atlantic Forest specialties in a relatively small area. Some of the highlights, voted by the participants, included Bare-throated Bellbird singing right above our heads with its ear-splitting “boinks”, a patient Frilled Coquette that perched and gave scope views to the whole group, the dullish but very special Three-toed Jacamar, a close encounter with Red-legged Seriemas in an open field, the cute White-eared Puffbird, good views of a gorgeous male Green-crowned Plovercrest, the hulking Giant Antshrike (which was the chosen representative of the amazing family), and among all the stunning tanagers, the Brassy-breasted got picked as the favorite.
