On the path bordering the Ex-covimet Román found this black bird. Size and voice did not match any of those known to him. He found the information on the site.

Seven inidividuals were spotted. Male in eclipse plumage

When we discovered the juvenile tiger-heron it had already caught this aquatic snake Helicops infrataeniatus. It shook the snake several times but unsuccessfully. The snake was very long and coiled around the bill as they usually do. Unluckily it moved away with the snake and the end of the story remains unknown

At the entrance of the Viamonte Access we found a field flicker eating ants along with a green-barred woodpecker (not in the video). The we discovered a second flicker at the back. Ah! and a rufous hornero, too!

Some 20 individuals (17 in the photo)

It returned after four months of absence

Very common some months ago. We look for it among all the coots to make sure the species is still present. There is only one individual.

Another bird which has suffered the change of the environment. With the extraction of the water fern only three individuals were counted in all the Coypu Pond. We reached 50 before that.

Seen on route 3. Quite impressive the number of white-crested tyrannulets heard on all routes, but no Straneck's tyrannulets at all

This species migrates to the north. Nevertheless some individuals always stay around. We detected a total of three.

Easier heard than seen this individual was even filmed.

Carries a fish which does not attempt or want to eat. Perhaps a token?

It is not common to see the white-tufted grebe in the alternate plumage at this time of the year. Simón and Sergio say they were building a nest.
