Scarlet-headed Blackbird<\/p>\n Maguari Stork<\/p>\n Sunbittern – still didn’t get the perfect shot<\/p>\n Black-tailed Marmoset<\/p>\n A short boat trip out of Pixaim did not produce the much-wanted Agami Heron often seen there, but there were some other birds (eBird checklist here) and mammals to be seen.<\/p>\n Jabiru head detail<\/p>\n Howler Monkey – which version is better?<\/p>\n We arrived in Cuiaba in the afternoon, said goodbye to Fernando and finally connected with our lost luggage. Today we took an early morning flight back to Sao Paulo, and met up with Marco our guide. We got a good introduction to Atlantic Forest birding at Salesopolis. Despite the horrible midday hour and heat, we scored with the recently discovered and<\/p>\n Critically Endangered<\/p>\n Sao Paulo (AKA Marsh) Antwren. We saw a male and a female, and heard another male. These are top-quality birds. Sadly my photos are not. They were not easy to photograph, and the light conditions were awful.<\/p>\n Sao Paulo Antwren – female<\/p>\n There were quite a few birds in the marsh and neighbouring forest – obviously most were new to us, so I photographed what I could, for documentation, despite the terrible quality:<\/p>\n Shear-tailed Gray Tyrant<\/p>\n Yellow-legged Thrush<\/p>\n Pale-bellied Thrush and Glittering-bellied Emerald<\/p>\n Fawn-breasted Tanager<\/p>\n
