Feathers in Brazil.

Hello!

Today, I would like to share a VERY IMPORTANT information about the Brazilian Rules for Protecting Nature.

It is, TOTALLY FORBIDEN, to collect feathers in Brazil. Doesn't mind if, you found it on the ground...

Since feathers are an important nesting material, used mainly at the bottom of the nest to keep the chicks warm , we are supposed to leave them to the birds to collect it.

In time:

1-

I had a "private performance" yesterday watching a Thrush-Like Wren to bring a beautiful white feather to its nest & to bring it inside...

2 -

As I write these words a White-Wedged Piculet sings outside my window...

Enjoy the Weekend!

Yours,

Paulo Boute.
