Birding in Argentina

We have also spent a few days birding in Argentina. A couple around Buenos Aires and one at Iguazu. I attach some photos of the wildlife we saw.

Of the 181 species we identified in Argentina 104 were brand new to us. Surprising how many birds are new despite having been in South America for so long. The Andes mountains and Amazon rainforest are significant barriers for non migratory birds so different species emerge.

We left Argentina with 1359 species for the trip. Might get to 1400 before leaving Brazil.Les mer
