The extraordinary Gray-winged Cotinga, by participant Gregg Recer
Another excellent, brief trip to the Atlantic Forest! We had our usual 100 or so endemics, our genial group was physically and intellectually energetic, there were no major health problems, and the weather was painless because rainless--although the late dry period, combined with the slow end to winter at this latitude, hurt us a bit in the total species department. Normally we see all six Drymophilas very well; this year we heard them all but saw only four, and even those were rather silent compared to past trips. Normally, we see all the "big five" antshrikes, but this year we heard only three and saw but two! Song was a bit slow in general. Solitary Tinamous were only beginning to sing. The Black Jacobins had just returned (no coquettes yet), and Olive-green Tanagers were still flocking at the banana feeders (they return to the forest once the days warm up). On the other hand, we had four species new for the tour: Common Potoo (sitting on an egg, I suspect), a covey of Spot-winged Wood-Quail (simply heard on prior trips), a Robust Woodpecker flyover, and a splendid pair of Green-throated Euphonias (which we had heard only twice prior to this trip). And all but for the potoo, endemics.
We had arrangements to use Nilton, our 4x4 driver, to ferry us up Pico da Caledonia, but his vehicle developed differential problems on the way up and he had to arrange, differentially, for a backup, an interruption which cost us about two hours. Yet one of the highlights that day was watching a rare Gray-winged Cotinga eating fruit only 25 feet away for about 20 minutes! We finally walked away. Other tour highlights included late morning views of a roosting Tawny-browed Owl, about four Spot-winged Wood-Quail, an outstanding Plovercrest showing off at the lek, exceptional views of Spotted Bamboowren, an extraordinary experience with a pair of Tufted Antshrikes, the always so-cool Oustalet's Tyrannulet, a very accommodating Sharpbill, commanding Bare-throated Bellbirds, a knee-buckling encounter with Chestnut-headed Tanager (one of my favorites), a crazy Red-legged Seriema, and my first Southern River Otter for the Atlantic Forest. Gorgeous habitat and a grounds full of spectacular birds frequenting the feeders rounded out, daily, a humdinger of a tour.
I want to thank my co-leader Andy Foster for his unfailing good cheer despite the temporary separation from Cristina and Olivia, not to mention his expertise and avian know-how; the staff of Serra dos Tucanos that has over nine years provided superlative service, food, and desserts; and each of you for making guiding birding tours a continuing exciting source of pleasure. A special thanks to Gregg for contributing to SmugMug some handsome photos to remind us all of the beauty we collectively absorbed.
