🇬🇧🇺🇲 We had a great morning birding in the highly endangered coastal Atlantic Forest of southeast Brazil 🇧🇷, so we are doing something very unusual in our social media: sharing content on the same day we record it 😅 🙌

Here are 4 short videos made by our director and tour leader (the first one was filmed with a bridge camera, and the last three were digiscoped):

1. Black-hooded Antwren (highly range restricted Brazilian endemic)
2. Sharpbill (not endemic, but always a pleasure to see)
3. Fasciated Tiger-Heron (a rare bird in the Atlantic Forest)
4. Bare-throated Bellbird (Atlantic Forest endemic)

🇦🇷🇪🇸 Tuvimos una excelente mañana observando aves en la amenazada mata atlántica costeña del sudeste de Brasil 🇧🇷, por lo que estamos haciendo algo bastante inusual para nuestras redes sociales: compartir contenido el mismo día en que fue realizado 😅🙌

Estos son 4 videos hechos por nuestro director y tour líder Marcelo Gavensky (el primero con una cámara "bridge" y los otros tres mediante la técnica de ):

1. Hormiguerito encapuchado (especie endémica de Brasil y de distribución hiper restringida)
2. Picoagudo (no es endémica pero siempre es un placer encontrarlo)
3. Hocó oscuro (especie rara en la mata atlántica)
4. Pájaro campana (endémico de mata atlántica)

FYI... we will be taking part of 2024 starting this Friday with a stand (R48), where you can meet us and clear up any doubts you may have for your next trip to Southern South America, and with a talk by our tour leader on Sunday 14th 🙌🙌🙌

Take advantage of this and don't miss out the possibility of personally meeting us, we really look forward to talking with you!

Southern South America offers great opportunities, either combined with birding or in mammal focused trips. Giant Anteater is one of the most iconic species in the neotropic, and in our region (Argentina & southern South America) it can be found in northern Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Bolivia, where this one was filmed 🇧🇴

An encounter with this amazing animal takes you back to prehistorical times, when our subcontinent was teeming with other giant xenarthrans such as giant land sloths (some were as large as elephants) and armadillos the size of small cars 🚗 😱

We are working on specialized mammal watching itineraries. Check out our website www.birdsargentina.com and contact us for more information 📧📱

El sur de Sudamérica ofrece excelentes oportunidades de , ya sea combinando con observación de aves o en viajes especialmente dirigidos a estos animales. El oso hormiguero gigante, oso bandera o yurumí (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), entre otros nombres, es una de las especies más icónicas del neotrópico, y en nuestra región (Argentina y sur de Sudamérica) puede ser observado en el norte argentino, Brasil, Paraguay y Bolivia, donde éste fue filmado 🇧🇴

Un encuentro con esta especie nos lleva a tiempos prehistóricos cuando en nuestro subcontinente habitaban otros xenarthra gigantes como perezosos terrestres (algunos del tamaño de elefantes) y armadillos gigantes casi tan grandes como un automóvil 🚗😱

Following up with our selection of normally skulking birds that have given us great performances during our (💪💪💪) here is a nocturnal one: the elusive and range-restricted Black-capped Screech-Owl 🙌 🙌🙌🦉

This species is endemic to the of Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, where this one was filmed. It is far more often heard than seen but sometimes (and with the help of our knowledgeable guides 😎) allows great views!

Siguiendo con nuestra selección de aves normalmente elusivas que nos han brindado excelentes avistajes durante nuestros (💪💪💪) he aquí una nocturna: el alilicucú grande (Megascops atricapilla) 🙌🙌🙌🦉

Esta especie endémica de la de Brazil, Paraguay y Argentina (donde éste fue filmado) es mucho más comúnmente oído que visto, pero en ocasiones (y con ayuda de nuestros guías expertos 😎) permite muy buenas observaciones!

Most tapaculos are skulking birds and this one is not the exception 😅 BUT they are still great birds and worth every fraction of a second we can get from them 🙌🙌🙌 (of course, recording them on video is this hard, but better/longer views can be achieved during our tours 💪)

This White-browed Tapaculo is an Argentine endemic found in the northwest austral yungas forest. This particular one belongs to a subspecies endemic of the Santa Barbara sierras, which makes it even more special 😍

La mayoría de los churrines son bastante difíciles de observar por su comportamiento escurridizo... y éste no es la excepción 😅 PERO de todos modos valen cada fracción de segundo que podamos contemplarlos 🙌🙌🙌 (claro que firlmarlos es muy difícil, pero mejores/más largas observaciones pueden lograrse durante nuestros tours 💪)

El churrín ceja blanca (Scytalopus superciliaris) es una especie endémica de Argentina que habita las yungas australes del noroeste del país. Y este individuo en particular pertenece a una subespecie a su vez endémica de la Sierra de Santa Bárbara, lo que lo hace más especial aún 😍

Antshrikes are amongst the most iconical neotropical forest birds, although the are usually skulking and many times checked as "only-heard" by visiting birdwatchers on their checklists... but some (all?) REALLY deserve a good view 👁 👁

This amazing White-bearded Antshrike is a real MEGA bird, being a naturally scarce bamboo specialist endemic to the Atlantic forest 🙌🙌🙌 (and actually quite pretty 😍)

The species is only found in South East Brazil and the Argentine province of Misiones, where this male was filmed during a recent birding tour to the Iguazu falls and Atlantic forest of Argentina 🐦

Las chocas y bataráes (familia Thamnophilidae) están entre las aves más icónicas de los bosques y selvas neotropicales, aunque muchas veces son difíciles de observar y a veces son marcadas como "sólo oídas" por observadores de aves... pero algunas (todas?) REALMENTE merecen una buena observación 👁 👁

Este espectacular batará pecho negro (Biatas nigropectus) es atractivo en muchos aspectos, siendo una especie naturalmente escasa, especialista de tacuaras (bambú) y endémica de la mata atlántica 🙌🙌🙌 (y bastante lindo también 😍)

Esta especie sólo habita en el sudeste de Brasil y en la provincia argentina de Misiones donde este macho fue filmado, durante un reciente tour a la selva atlántica interior y cataratas de Iguazú en Argentina 🐦

It's very hard to write something about what is happening in our beloved Ibera marshes (which are currently burning, and have been doing so for over a month) so we leave it to one of its endangered inhabitants, the beautiful Black-and-white Monjita, and an orchestra of other birds and insects (and maybe frogs?) singing in the back, filmed some years ago, in better circumstances...

Please do listen to the sound of Ibera marshes and grasslands contained on this video (turn on the audio 🔉) because that's how a healthy environment sounds like, and we need to do everything we can in order to keep having healthy environments all over the world, for ourselves and for future generations.

We strongly believe that ecoturism is a powerful conservation tool and will help overcoming this and other terrible situations that are happening in our planet as we write these words.

It's hard to remain optimistic, but that is the nature of life itself, and sooner than later nature will grow back. When it does, the least we can do is to be better prepared for a coexistence that should have never stopped being the rule

Another pandemic year is coming to an end and we, just like this spectacular Saffron-cowled Blackbird, are still hanging here awaiting for better times 💪 💪 💪

This season is still not normal but it is indeed much better than the last Austral summer and we are having visiting birdwatchers coming from abroad, who are rewarded with our world-class birding opportunities including amazing views of this critically endangered species, which can be found during our FD tours to Southern Entre Ríos from Buenos Aires, where this one was filmed 🙌🙌🙌

We hope you have a great holiday season and that the 2022 brings you joy, plenty of lifers and, why not, maybe a and trip to Argentina & Southern South America!!! 🛫🌎🐦🐧🦉🐆🐊🦋

Otro año pandémico esta llegando a su fin y nosotros, tal como lo hace este espectacular tordo amarillo (Xanthopsar flavus), seguimos resistiendo y esperando por tiempos mejores 💪 💪 💪

Esta temporada aún no es normal pero es mucho mejor que el último verano, y ya estamos recibiendo observadores de aves internacionales que son recompensados con experiencias de aviturismo de clase mundial, incluyendo impresionantes vistas de esta especie críticamente amenazada que puede ser observada durante nuestros tours de día completo al sur de Entre Ríos desde Buenos Aires, donde éste fue filmado 🙌🙌🙌

Les deseamos unas excelentes fiestas y que este año 2022 les traiga alegría, muchos "lifers" y, por qué no, tal vez un viaje de y a la Argentina y el sur de Sudamérica!!! 🛫🌎🐦🐧🦉🐆🐊🦋

So, another and went by, and again we took part of it as a team! 🙌🙌🙌

This time it wasn't just us, the tour leaders, but we built up a larger team involving most of the local guides who work together with us in all corners of Argentina, plus parts of Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Chile and Peru (the region that we call "Southern South America", which of course also includes Uruguay). We were 18 team members in total, and together we saw an overwhelming number of 670 bird species in just one day 😱🙌🎊🎉🎊

In Argentina we recorded 447 species, and our small "tour leaders team" gathered 185 species just in Buenos Aires and Southern Entre Ríos province (our favorite destination in BA surroundings) 🐦🦆🦅🦉

We all had a lot of fun, and would like to thank .appleton2 from and of course for making this possible!!! 🙏 !

And thank all team members!
