Wild Patagonia & Central Chile
WILD PATAGONIA & CENTRAL CHILE: PUMAS, PENGUINS, CONDORS & MORE! October 30 – November 16, 2018 SANTIAGO–HUMBOLDT EXTENSION: ANDES, WETLANDS & ALBATROSS GALORE! November 14-20, 2018 ©2018 Breathtaking Chile! Whether exploring wild Patagonia, watching a Puma hunting a herd of Guanaco against a backdrop of snow-capped spires, enjoying the fascinating antics of a raucous King Penguin colony in Tierra del Fuego, observing a pair of hulking Magellanic Woodpeckers or colorful friendly Tapaculos in a towering Southern Beech forest, or sipping fine wine in a comfortable lodge, this lovely, modern South American country is destined to captivate you! Hosteira Pehoe in Torres Del Paine National Park © Andrew Whittaker Wild Patagonia and Central Chile, Page 2 On this exciting new tour, we will experience the majestic scenery and abundant wildlife of Chile, widely regarded among the most beautiful countries in the world! From Santiago & Talca, in south- central Chile, to the famous Chilean Lake district, charming Chiloe Island to wild Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego in the far south, we will seek out all the special birds, mammals, and vivid landscapes for which the country is justly famous. Our visit is timed for the radiant southern spring when the weather is at its best, colorful blooming wildflowers abound, birds are outfitted in stunning breeding plumage & singing, and photographic opportunities are at their peak. Perhaps most exciting, we will have the opportunity to observe the intimate and poorly known natural history of wild Pumas amid spectacular Torres del Paine National Park, often known as the 8th wonder of the World! Chile is a wonderful place for experiencing nature. -

Effects of Habitat Fragmentation on Bird Species in a Relict Temperate Forest in Semiarid Chile
Effects of Habitat Fragmentation on Bird Species in a Relict Temperate Forest in Semiarid Chile CINTIA CORNELIUS, HERNÁN COFRÉ, AND PABLO A. MARQUET* Departamento de Ecología, Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Casilla 114-D, Santiago, Chile Abstract: We analyzed the structure and composition of a bird assemblage in a fragmented relict temperate forest located in northcentral Chile (Fray Jorge National Park). In terms of species composition, the bird assem- blage we found in Fray Jorge was more similar to southern temperate forest sites, located more than 1200 km south of Fray Jorge, than to localities found in nearby scrub habitats. The relict character and long-term isolation of the Fray Jorge forest provides a natural experiment with which to establish the potential long- term effects of fragmentation and isolation on southern Chilean temperate forests. Between May 1996 and March 1997, we conducted seasonal surveys of birds in six forest fragments, ranging in size from 0.5 to 22.5 ha, at Fray Jorge. The number of bird species at each forest fragment was positively correlated with fragment area during all seasons. The relict forest system had a steeper species-area slope than that reported for similar temperate-forest bird assemblages in forest fragments within Chiloé Island and for islands across the Chiloé Archipelago in southern Chile. In this regard, this bird fauna resembled a depauperate oceanic archipelago. This difference in area effects is likely a consequence of the minimization of rescue effects because of the ab- sence of large source forest areas nearby and the long-term isolation of the system. -

Our two main pelagics, and various ferry crossings, delivered 17 species of tubenose with highlights of Southern Royal, Chatham and Buller´s Albatrosses, one of the first Shy (White-capped) Albatross records for Chile, and some Pincoya Storm Petrels. In all, we observed 280 species (of which 28 were only seen on the extension) plus some 16 species of mammal, among which, the rarely seen Huemul and delightful Commerson's Dolphin stood 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 endangered Chilean Woodstar, Tamarugo Conebill, White-throated Earthcreeper, Andean and James's Flamingos, Magellanic Woodpecker, Burrowing Parrot, Spectacled Duck, White-throated Hawk, Rufous-legged Owl, Des Murs’ Wiretail and the recently split Patagonian Forest Earthcreeper. -

E-mail: [email protected] Resumen. – Atributos de rodal y abundancia de aves nidificadoras de cavidades secundarias en bos- ques de Nothofagus en el centro-sur de Chile. – La ecología de aves nidificadoras de cavidades secunda- rias (NCS) ha captado gran interés en el mundo por muchos años, en parte por la relación directa entre la biología reproductiva de estas especies y los impactos del manejo forestal en la disponibilidad de cavidades. Mientras que existe gran cantidad de información sobre la ecología de los NSC para la región Paleártica y Neártica, ésta es escasa en el Neotrópico, especialmente para los bosques templados. Para describir el efecto de los atributos del bosque en la abundancia de aves NCS, realizamos un estudio de dos partes en la cordillera de la costa de la región del Maule, centro-sur de Chile. En primer lugar, usando 40 puntos de conteo distribuidos en un gradiente de bosques de Nothofagus, relacionamos las condiciones del bosque con la densidad de cuatro NCS (invierno y primavera austral de 1999 y 2000). En segundo lugar, usando un experimento con cajas anideras (primavera 1999, invierno 2000), probamos si las cavidades limitan la den- sidad de NCS en un bosque secundario. -

Using surrogate species to monitor the status of target biodiversity in areas undergoing exceptional habitat loss requires extending the traditional assessment of surrogates for taxonomic diversity to validating surrogates for functional diversity. This validation will be critical to inform about broader ecosystem processes and stability. We compared the surrogacy reliability of the habitat-specialist Rufous- legged Owl (Strix rufipes) and the habitat-generalist Austral Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium nana), and we examined potential underlying mechanisms for surrogacy relationships in Andean temperate forests, a global biodiversity hotspot in southern Chile. During 2011–2013, we conducted 1,145 owl surveys, 505 vegetation surveys, and 505 avian point-transect surveys across 101 sites comprising a range of conditions from degraded forest habitat to structurally complex old-growth forest stands.
