Dear Per - A lot depends on how you are travelling. If you are taking a reponsibly outfitted tour your opertaing company's leader should have a scope availbale...
I agree with Barry. No sense in bringing yours if you are on a tour (make sure leader will have one). If on your own, I think it is worth slugging around. ...
Hi Per, I've been to Peru 4 times and will be going a 5th time this summer. If you are going with a group then you may not need to bring a scope. I've been...
Thanks Wim. I pretty much decided on this option anyway. Having all the time in the world to go on the new road to Juliaca, I guess one would have time to make...

Hi all T. argyrofenges and urothraupis/buarremon Willem-Pier, sorry for the late answer about the birds that I saw at Mijal (Piura). The first one, that me and...
Birding peru pals, Last sunday I went to Salinas lake 4330 m. I have two highlights to report: - At 3700 m a Tit-Spinetail with the back beige no dark brown...
Interesting records Juan The Tit-Spinetail sounds more like berlepschi which in that case shows that it can flip down the west slope. But I encourage that you...

Hi All, I posted a photo of White-tailed Shrike-Tyrant that I took along the road between Celendin and Cajamarca in October, 2001. In comparing this photo with...
Hi all. Interesting Agriornis photos, and a good example of how tricky these birds can be. By structure and most plumage features I'd say the photos by Didier...
Joe, Gary, Didier and Peru birders I had a look at the mystery picture magnified. I cannot see any yellow on the lower mandible. The pale on the bill seems...

Hi All, I have now posted another White-tailed Shrike-Tyrant photo that I took in Ecuador, above Quito near Calacali in January, 2003. Hopefully this will shed...
Dear All - the photos are fairly conclusive. The throat pattern is White-tailed, the bill seems too delicate for White-tailed but looks too strong for...
Joe, I've seen commercial tour groups of 10 participants and just one (the leader's) scope. On such tours you're better off having your own as cues are often...

Hi, Looking at the two photos by Didier I think that the bill is too slender for White-tailed Shrike-Tyrant and fits within the range of bill sizes/ shapes of...

Wim It would be great if you or someone in Arequipa/Mollendo/Matarani/Camana could set something up that could be operated commercially. It is OK maybe for...
