The Red-and-white Crake (Rufirallus leucopyrrhus) has some color combinations that it can pull off with style. A marsh bird, this was the first of several new species for me that I photographed at Sitio Macuquinho near Salesopolis, Sao Paulo, Brazil. It has a partially greenish beak, red eyes, white breast, rufous head and neck, chestnut back, coral legs and feet, and distinctive white and black barred underfeathers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/29a382a1-00a4-43cd-93cb-bcbc2c19837e/Blue+Dacnis+in+flower+pot+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg new! The Blue Dacnis (Dacnis cayana) often frequent treetops looking for insects, though this rainy day they came down to check out a flower pot at Ninho da Cambacica. Here’s a male (bright blue with a black throat) and female (light green with a light blue crown). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/d2c78887-b530-44c5-a7ba-aff01802d3b6/Channel-billed+Pousada+Salve+Floresta.jpg new! We were fortunate to visit a narrow strip along Southeast Brazil’s Atlantic coast, on the edge of the tall forests, where the loud and beautiful Channel-billed Toucans (Ramphastos vitellinus) frequent. We observed them eating the plentiful palm nuts and other fruits, though evidently they’ll eat other birds, small lizards, frogs, etc. These were at Pousada Salve Floresta, a bit south and east of Sao Paulo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/243aac88-0a67-4baf-8ade-ba0b12be325d/Sharpbill+on+branch+Hotel+Donati.jpg new! The Sharpbill (Oxyruncus cristatus) has no close relatives so is placed in its own family. As the name implies, it has a cone-shaped sharp bill and is greenish-yellow with white and black spots below. It has a rarely seen reddish-orange crest on top of its head (hence, the “cristatus” part of its scientific name). This one was on the grounds of the Hotel Donati lodge located within Brazil’s first national park, the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/93bb7241-5693-43ef-8fc6-ba551e6fc540/Bay-breasted+Warbling+Finch+on+branch+Itatiaia+NP.jpg new! This sweet little Bay-breasted Warbling Finch (Castanozoster thoracicus) is endemic to southern Brazil. Its habitat is at elevation (this one was at 2,130m). Its distinctive white eye patch is plainly seen in this photo while less evident is the reddish band around its breast and flanks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/7e924e04-13b9-439d-b233-1b3680fc3f6d/Roadside+Hawk+OTR+to+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg new! For a bird that loves to perch at the forest’s edge, you’re bound to been seen and named a Roadside Hawk (Rupornis magnirostris). We saw this one on our way to Ninho da Cambacica Villa, a wonderful spot to photograph just north of Ubatuba, Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/80a87191-41d8-447f-ba72-c1c58d5c5ab0/Yellow-fronted+Woodpecker+OTR+near+Ubatuba+SP+Brazil.jpg new! After a few wonderful rainy days at Ninho da Cambacica, we hit the road for destinations west of São Paulo. We came across this very handsome male Yellow-fronted Woodpecker (Melanerpes flavifrons) along the way to the coastal town of Ubatuba. Males have a red crown while females have a blue-black crown. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/30574fed-96f9-4544-9d64-17a1197b09b0/Plain+Parakeet+on+palm+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg new! Southeast Brazil is such a nice place for bird photography that even when you stop for lunch you mustn’t forget your camera. Here’s a Plain Parakeet juvenile (Brotogeris tirica) sitting out the rain on a palm leaf just downhill from our picnic table. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/2b358b92-7853-4819-99bf-e13d2ef6458d/Magpie+Tanager+on+perch+Trilha+dos+Tucanos+.jpg new! Near the top of the list of entertaining birds, the Magpie Tanager (Cissopis leverianus) is one of a kind as the only member of the genus Cissopis, but might be strangely familiar to those in northern and western North America who are similarly entertained by the corvid Black-billed Magpies (Pica hudsonia). This Magpie Tanager was in the forest edge at Trilha dos Tucanos, near Tapiraí, SP Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/3c304b7e-b45e-4e49-b028-879f8035eccd/Sapphire-spangled+Emerald+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg new! I tried for a good long while to photograph this Sapphire-spangled Emerald (Chionomesa lactea) in flight with its pinkish/reddish lower mandible showing - best I could get is this glimpse at the Sitio Macuquinho near Salesópolis, Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/c9b55974-5613-4fcd-9a1a-d220537fa358/Streamer-tailed+Tyrant+high-key+Itatiaia.jpg new! Art or accident? I made a masking error while processing this photo of a Streamer-tailed Tyrant, including a bit of the branch with the bird. I got rid of the background and liked this result. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/6dc091ff-b94b-4f0c-8a13-5127fe865304/Violet-capped+Woodnymph+Hotel+Donati.jpg new! This male Violet-capped Woodnymph (Thalurania glaucopis) was photographed at Hotel Donati, located in the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, located between Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/3d9fc5a9-4b21-4c9a-9391-971462e0fd7c/Brazilian+Tanager+perched+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg new! Tanagers are distinguished by their vibrant, sexually dimorphic plumage, their fruit and insect diet, and their living in the forest canopy. The male Brazilian Tanager (Ramphocelus bresilius) is further distinguished by its vivid, rich red plumage. This one and its mate were visiting the Sitio Macuquinho Lodge in southeast Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/af914fcf-03c7-4b63-9422-4f503988d3fc/Cinnamon+Tanager+Itatiaia+NP.jpg new! I was reading of the diet and foraging habits of the Cinnamon Tanager (Schistochlamys ruficapillus) and came across something to help my own diet and foraging - www.Birdsandbeanscoffee.com. I’m not connected in any way, but it’s organic, fair trade, and and grown in a bird-friendly manner so I’m going to give it a try! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/8ae6adf7-242f-4f4e-a142-f6b84adef368/Rufous-fronted+Thornbird+near+Itatiaia.jpg new! We found this wind-blown Rufous-fronted Thornbird (Phacellodomus rufifrons) near Brazil’s Parque Nacional do Itatiaia. It would have been nice to find its nest. The nests are built as long cylinders, often with thorny branches, and may be up to 6 feet long containing several “chambers”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/bec73c82-7a7e-454c-b540-97c2db86e045/Southern+Yellowthroat+on+flower+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg new! The first project off the plane after 48 hours of travel and delays was (trying) to photograph Southern Yellowthroats (Geothlypis velata). Long considered a subspecies of the Masked Yellowthroat, now its own species, the Southern Yellowthroat hops and flits around very quickly close to the ground among grasses, cattails, and weeds. Its perches are seldom clean for photography. A nice challenge to start our trip to southeast Brazil! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/2109ac0e-b3ed-4e22-a586-25a12bbd9ddd/Rufous-bellied+Thrush+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg new! The national bird of Brazil, the Rufous-bellied Thrush (Turdus rufiventris) is known for its beautiful song. This photo was taken one chilly morning at the beautiful Sitio Macuquinho Lodge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/3f9155b9-14f7-43cb-baf2-0f1e83ad0016/Curl-crested+Jay+on+branch+Itatiaia.jpg new! This Curl-crested Jay (Cyanocorax cristatellus) was one of a small group on the outskirts of Itatiaia SP, Brazil, that showed up at an old petrol station when we stopped to photograph some Toco Toucans that we spotted along the road. The sun light just caught its eye. https://www.felzfotoz.com/gallery-4 daily 0.75 2025-02-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/f7a09f93-3d72-4baa-bf49-9e4c8b2ffb5f/Channel-billed+Pousada+Salve+Floresta.jpg my top 10!

Those feathers were once, in the late 1800s, in such demand for fashionable hats that the feathers were valued at twice the price of gold. Hunted to near extinction, the Snowy Egret made a sustained comeback until the late 1900s when wetland loss has led to sustained population declines. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/a536de7a-fb58-4b7b-aef5-aa70bd143126/Barn+Swallow+chicks+feeding+Belmar+web.jpg adventures!

- Portfolio: In the Rockies At Walden Ponds, near Boulder, CO, I followed this Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) through 3 perches and around 2 lakes to get a closer photo. When I catch up, I lift 10+ lbs of camera and lens just to find a branch in the hawk’s face. I mutter my complaint, and as if hearing, it leans its head to my right for a clear shot. Seldom works out that way! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/58668ee9-ff47-42e1-a6b2-8c292411b48f/Broad-tailed+Hummingbird+Chatfield+Farms+BG.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: In the Rockies Broad-tailed Hummingbird, at the Chatfield Farm Botanic Garden (Denver Botanic Garden). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/38056cb5-6f11-4342-8e29-ec2b4d0d3e9d/Black-crowned+Night+Heron+with+fish+Belmar.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: In the Rockies They may be relatively common, but I don’t often see Black-crowned Night Herons (Nycticorax nycticorax) here in Colorado, largely because they are most active during early dawn and late dusk when light is dim. It was a bonus today when I saw two, an adult here with a freshly-caught fish, and a juvenile further along the pond settling in for its nap. This adult was distracted by its fish so I was able to creep close and photograph it through deep brush along the shore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/ff083139-6a83-4e68-8c86-e945737a5ce6/Yellow-rumped+Warbler+St+Vrain+SP.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: In the Rockies It's late September, so migration is bringing the Yellow-rumped Warblers (Setophaga coronata) to lower elevations, this one and a modest amount of others to St. Vrain State Park near Longmont, CO. This was formerly known as Audubon’s Warbler, but was lumped with the Myrtle Warbler in 1973 after it was found that the two species were genetically similar and aptly created hybrids. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/3a0df3ab-5c7e-47dd-b3aa-4c8734e46f78/Pygmy+Nuthatch+RMNP+Lily+Lake.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: In the Rockies Such a treat to see the aspens at peak color and a clear view of Longs Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park! At this elevation the Ponderosa Pines are plentiful, which means the Pygmy Nuthatches (Sitta pygmaea) require only a little patience to find. This one appeared to be looking for insects in the Ponderosa’s reddish jigsaw-like bark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/924f49e1-b165-4534-ad32-7fda3ccd6be2/Red-tailed+Hawk+buzzed+Chatfield.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: In the Rockies I went looking for Wood Ducks this morning to no avail, but found some nice photo opportunities along a reservoir near Littleton, CO. This Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) aggressively flew at me several times as I was walking the trail photographing Red-winged Blackbirds eating seeds in weed patches. I wished I had my 100-400mm instead of the 600mm I was carrying. They come fast and large, so it startles a bit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/22756a21-03a3-40d4-a743-b835bf42e922/Great+Blue+Heron+with+fish+Chatfield.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: In the Rockies I was going to pass by this Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias), but decided to check the reflections in the water.

As the name implies, it has a cone-shaped sharp bill and is greenish-yellow with white and black spots below. It has a rarely seen reddish-orange crest on top of its head (hence, the “cristatus” part of its scientific name). This one was on the grounds of the Hotel Donati lodge located within Brazil’s first national park, the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/b10946b5-553a-4ef2-ab75-d64b415a42a0/Bay-breasted+Warbling+Finch+on+branch+Itatiaia+NP.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil his sweet little Bay-breasted Warbling Finch (Castanozoster thoracicus) is endemic to southern Brazil.

We saw this one on our way to Ninho da Cambacica Villa, a wonderful spot to photograph just north of Ubatuba, Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/80a87191-41d8-447f-ba72-c1c58d5c5ab0/Yellow-fronted+Woodpecker+OTR+near+Ubatuba+SP+Brazil.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil After a few wonderful rainy days at Ninho da Cambacica, we hit the road for destinations west of São Paulo. We came across this very handsome male Yellow-fronted Woodpecker (Melanerpes flavifrons) along the way to the coastal town of Ubatuba. Males have a red crown while females have a blue-black crown. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/30574fed-96f9-4544-9d64-17a1197b09b0/Plain+Parakeet+on+palm+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Southeast Brazil is such a nice place for bird photography that even when you stop for lunch you mustn’t forget your camera. Here’s a Plain Parakeet juvenile (Brotogeris tirica) sitting out the rain on a palm leaf just downhill from our picnic table. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/2b358b92-7853-4819-99bf-e13d2ef6458d/Magpie+Tanager+on+perch+Trilha+dos+Tucanos+.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Near the top of the list of entertaining birds, the Magpie Tanager is one of a kind as the only member of the genus Cissopis, but might be familiar to those in northern and western North America who are similarly entertained by the corvid Black-billed Magpies (Pica hudsonia). This Magpie Tanager was in the forest edge at Trilha dos Tucanos, near Tapiraí, SP Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/c09fcf02-c9fb-4d9e-93d5-5d5ccdeb0374/Curl-crested+Jay+on+branch+Itatiaia.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil This Curl-crested Jay (Cyanocorax cristatellus) was one of a small group on the outskirts of Itatiaia SP, Brazil, that showed up at an old petrol station when we stopped to photograph some Toco Toucans that we spotted along the road. The sun light just caught its eye. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/3c304b7e-b45e-4e49-b028-879f8035eccd/Sapphire-spangled+Emerald+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil I tried for a good long while to photograph this Sapphire-spangled Emerald in flight with its pinkish/reddish lower mandible showing - best I could get is this glimpse at the Sitio Macuquinho near Salesópolis, Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/8ae6adf7-242f-4f4e-a142-f6b84adef368/Rufous-fronted+Thornbird+near+Itatiaia.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil We found this wind-blown Rufous-fronted Thornbird (Phacellodomus rufifrons) near Brazil’s Parque Nacional do Itatiaia. It would have been nice to find its nest. The nests are built as long cylinders, often with thorny branches, and may be up to 6 feet long containing several “chambers”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/6dc091ff-b94b-4f0c-8a13-5127fe865304/Violet-capped+Woodnymph+Hotel+Donati.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil This male Violet-capped Woodnymph (Thalurania glaucopis) was photographed at Hotel Donati, located in the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, located between Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/bec73c82-7a7e-454c-b540-97c2db86e045/Southern+Yellowthroat+on+flower+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil The first project off the plane after 48 hours of travel and delays was (trying) to photograph Southern Yellowthroats (Geothlypis velata). Long considered a subspecies of the Masked Yellowthroat, now its own species, the Southern Yellowthroat hops and flits around very quickly close to the ground among grasses, cattails, and weeds. Its perches are seldom clean for photography. A nice challenge to start our trip to southeast Brazil! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/3d9fc5a9-4b21-4c9a-9391-971462e0fd7c/Brazilian+Tanager+perched+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Tanagers are distinguished by their vibrant, sexually dimorphic plumage, their fruit and insect diet, and their living in the forest canopy. The male Brazilian Tanager (Ramphocelus bresilius) is further distinguished by its vivid, rich red plumage. This one and its mate were visiting the Sitio Macuquinho Lodge in southeast Brazil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/2109ac0e-b3ed-4e22-a586-25a12bbd9ddd/Rufous-bellied+Thrush+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil The national bird of Brazil, the Rufous-bellied Thrush (Turdus rufiventris) is known for its beautiful song. It's memorialized in Antônio Gonçalves Dias' poem Canção do Exílio (Song in Exile), written while he was studying in Portugal: "My land has palm trees where the thrush sings. The birds that sing here do not sing as they do there. Our skies have more stars, our valleys have more flowers. Our forests have more life. Our lives have more love." The last two lines here are included in the Brazilian national anthem. This photo was taken one chilly morning at the beautiful Sitio Macuquinho Lodge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/af914fcf-03c7-4b63-9422-4f503988d3fc/Cinnamon+Tanager+Itatiaia+NP.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil This Cinnamon Tanager was photographed along the road through Brazil's Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, Brazil's first national park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/a5acace5-c2b8-4a4f-aa72-d9317f46ca3e/Streamer-tailed+Tyrant+pair+3+near+Itatiaia.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Streamer-tailed Tyrant, near Itatiaia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/9a11ac94-7d7b-4ffd-8533-14a00ad89d04/Toco+Toucan+OTR+to+Pousada+Salve+Floresta+web.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Toco Toucan, along the road to Pousada Salve Floresta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/cab5b58a-cef0-4216-b64f-8e77df55af33/Slaty+Bristlefront+Hotel+Donati+2+web.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Slaty Bristlefront, Hotel Donati, Parque Nacional do Itatiaia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/72b4259f-8d54-42a4-93f1-1779732d6bca/Black-goggled+Tanager+with+insect+Tapirai.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Black-goggled Tanager, with insect, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/c5a3de71-6ead-4485-8bc8-66e3d995a63d/White-spotted+Woodpecker+Hotel+Donati+web.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil White-spotted Woodpecker, Parque Nacional do Itatiaia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/59707000-ba64-4a34-8a2b-34558baaa49f/Black-goggled+Tanager+Sitio+Macaquino+sig.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Black-goggled Tanager, reflection, Sitio Macaquinho Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/63c480be-9279-4a44-9d58-f420091b1979/Saffron+Toucanet+Tapirai+sig.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Saffron Toucanet, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/4e41eafc-a82d-431c-ab2d-1984c285a8c2/Saffron+Toucanet+Trilho+dos+Tucanos.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Saffron Toucanet, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/e6ae1417-f62f-4cf2-8428-566c229dd519/White-shouldered+FIre-eye.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil White-shouldered Fire-eye, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/b3e134bb-b998-40df-a0a6-12ef5bda5541/Maroon-bellied+Parakeet.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Maroon-bellied Parakeet, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/0e3835e1-9e5d-4d4c-ad19-d78cfb68ea0c/Chestnut-bellied+Euphonia+Trilha+dos+Tucanos.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Chestnut-bellied Euphonia, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/5f7183f5-17ce-47d0-a550-20578134f838/Magpie+Tanager+Trilha+dos+Tucanos.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Magpie Tanager, Trilha dos Tucanos https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/38bcd7bd-1e3c-46b6-ba01-7362302785b0/Kiskadee+Pousada+Selve+Floretas.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Lesser Kisdadee, Pousada Salve Floresta Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/a33dc3a7-098a-4269-9475-03d903a9c28c/Cliff+Flycatcher+Tilha+dos+Tucanos.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Cliff Flycatcher, Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/2b923dc5-3ab3-4548-a6cc-cd099f7837b6/Burrowing+Owls+Ubatuba+Bay.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Burrowing Owls, Ubatuba Bay https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/90301400-ab54-47d4-83ed-7d9fed30db5b/Blue+Dacnis+male+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Blue Dacnis, male, Ninho da Cambacica Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/4e58afc5-65a9-4193-9390-5875431feef4/Blue+Dacnis+female+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Blue Dacnis, female, Ninho da Cambacica Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/bf03f832-898b-4464-b3e4-29db30399da5/Hooded+Berryeater+OTR+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Hooded Berryeater, on the road to Ninho da Cambacica Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/c13051c9-b6af-449b-af7d-57e192781909/Green+Kingfisher+male+Sitio+Macuquinho.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Green Kingfisher, male, Sitio Macuquingo Lodge https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/c9b55974-5613-4fcd-9a1a-d220537fa358/Streamer-tailed+Tyrant+high-key+Itatiaia.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil Processing photos is sometimes art, sometimes science, and sometimes accident.

We observed them eating the plentiful palm nuts and other fruits, though evidently they’ll eat other birds, small lizards, frogs, etc. These were at Pousada Salve Floresta, a bit south and east of Sao Paulo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/0688dfb8-9603-43f6-8466-9b7224cb81f4/Red-and-white+Crakes+on+log.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil The Red-and-white Crake (Rufirallus leucopyrrhus) has some color combinations that it can pull off with style. A marsh bird, this was the first of several new species for me that I photographed at Sitio Macuquinho near Salesopolis, Sao Paulo, Brazil. It has a partially greenish beak, red eyes, white breast, rufous head and neck, chestnut back, coral legs and feet, and distinctive white and black barred underfeathers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/602d2b5f-b2d5-4317-acd2-8c867e81de13/Blue+Dacnis+in+flower+pot+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil The Blue Dacnis (Dacnis cayana) often frequent treetops looking for insects, though this rainy day they came down to check out a flower pot at Ninho da Cambacica.

While it has somewhat drab coloring (the color of my college major’s tassel at graduation was “drab”, so I am a bit partial to drab), it has bold patterns and beautiful rufous/orange neck, cheeks, and tail feathers. And, almost discernible in my photo, a hooked beak tip. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/9035f3f2-a1a4-40fe-8170-97122d7c7bb3/Green+Honeycreeper+female+Ninho+da+Cambacica.jpg adventures! - Portfolio: Brazil We spent a few days at the beautiful Ninho da Cambacica Lodge west of Sao Paulo experiencing wonderful hospitality and meals while learning just how wet the rainforest can be!

The beautiful Blond-crested Woodpeckers (Celeus flavescens) can be found there. Though their favorite diet is ants and termites found high in the canopy (they carve/drill new nests each year in arboreal ant or termite nests), they will come down for fruits, berries and insects on the ground, or maybe just to get their picture taken. https://www.felzfotoz.com/portfolio-1/project-two-ky966-mm6se monthly 0.5 2025-02-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67ad537410256f6c07ed2f4f/2e891cc9-bdcf-45b8-a60e-9fbb6d08d26a/Yellow-crowned+Night+Heron+Abaco+web.jpg adventures!
