I’m back to Mato Grosso, after a three week trip to the Brazilian Northeast.
It was great: Hooded Berryeater & Cinnamon-vented Cotinga were great highlights, not mentioning the Araripe Manakin and hundreds of Lear’s Macaw.
I wish everyone a great weekend!!!
Yours,
Paulo Boute.
Hello!
Just got back from a wonderful trip to the Pantanal and Serra das Araras!
At the Pantanal the highlights were a flock of 40 Hyacinth Macaws, a Jaguar – as good as it gets!, Tapir and a lifer for the Pantanal: Chesnut-capped Blackbird.
At Serra das Araras, we found the young Harpy Eagle just 20 feet above the ground & above our heads!!! After some full frame pictures taken by my guests , we saw it flying to a near by tree and late to another tree – Beautiful Flights!!!
Tomorrow, I’m leaving for the Northeast for a very extensive Birding Tour.
Yours,
Paulo Boute.

Hello !
Just got back from a Birding Tour on the Brazilian Northeast: Couldn’t be better – We had about 300 Hyacinth Macaws!!!
We saw them flying in flocks, perched on cactus, feeding in Palm trees, grazzing wiht the cattle and even perched on telephone wires!!!

I do have quite a nice garden at my office in Mato Grosso.
Once in a while, I get there – totally – unexpected birds.
The most recent ones are : A Red-crested Finch, that , apparently, is living there & a pair of Toucan Toucans seen on a Cecropia tree.
Today, I’m leaving for the Pantanal. I will also go to Serra das Araras and Chapada National Park.
This time I intend to make a better video & pictures of the Harpy Eagle.
Yours,
Paulo Boute.

Hello!
It’s packing time to me!
Tomorrow, I will leave for Fernando de Noronha Island.
I’m having a great expectation!
I consider it, one of the most beautiful places in the World!
Birding is also absolutely The best thing is the birds don’t get stressed!
Hello!
There is a House Wren at my yard.
Today, seems to be a very inspiring day for it! It has been singing all day long!!!
I love it!
This is a bird that has been following me all my life…At my childhood at the State of Paraná & many other places I lived….it’s call is a bit different from the one in North America and Europe. But, not less melodious.
Yours,
Paulo.
