Three-Toed Jacamar
The more I revisit the Brazil pictures, the more birds I identify, and the images are starting to feel like old friends, even when they sometimes assume new identities. Yet what seemed an impossible chore before has now become a fond obsession.

Red-Billed Curassow
I started wondering just how many endemic species were on the list and there were actually quite a few. We didn’t see them all, and I didn’t get pictures of all the ones we did, but here are some of them.

Maroon-Faced Parakeet

Red-Browed Parrots

Saw-Billed Hermit

Wing-Banded Hornero

Blue-Throated Parakeet

Orange-Eyed Thornbird
To be continued…
Thanks to my friend Linda Rios for giving me the idea for this quick post. She found the red and green pheasant in my last post very seasonal, so I thought I’d surf through the Brazil photos for a little Christmas spirit. The Brazilian Tanager above is a beautiful bird that eluded my lens, but since he’s perched in a green bush, I could not resist.
