TEST Experiments Peru Species

UNLESS that is you get yourself down to the internationally-renowned Tambopata Research Centre in southern Peru where literally hundreds of macaws (and other parrots) congregate around a 50 meter high clay bank. The experience is one of the ornithological highlights in the world. That’s right – birds eating clay.

I like to see birds for a long time and hear their vocalization; even if these are common species. A couple of months ago I took a true pelagic trip off the coast of Peru. Ok, I had studied the storm-petrels, but these were far and could not get a long-enough view at them to test how well or badly prepared I was.

The lure of an staggering number of species at a particular location is a draw for many people. In fact, the number of “heard only” annotations next to a species names is more frequent in bird list resulting from rainforest birding than birding in any other habitat type. Birding in the Amazon Rainforest has its pros and cons.

I savor the timeless experience of scanning these tropical waves for storm-petrels and lost jaegers. With around 400 species recorded for the area, yeah, it’s where we might all like to quarantine for a bit! Want to see a high quality video showing 53 species only be found in Costa Rica and adjacent western Panama?

For Corey, this was a weekend without a single standout species but with many birds that were pretty darn neat. If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment. Mar 19th, 2011 at 8:26 pm Corey, I am jealous of your Red-breasted Merganser experience at JBWR and the flight shots.

If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment. On Sunday at Kissena Park I saw five species of sparrows. A mixed species flock of sparrows (american tree, field and chipping) was by the bike track parking lot. What was your best bird of the weekend?

About the Author Mike Mike is a leading authority in the field of standardized test preparation, but what he really aspires to be is a naturalist. Turkeys, 3 or 4 species of woodpeckers, all kinds of song birds grace our view constantly. Stop by our blog for some nice shots and share the experience!! As I said, we are blessed.
