Hello!
I'm in Aracajú...Just about to leave for Salvador, from where I will start a 08 day birding tour on the Brazilian NE.
Yesterday ( Sunday) I went to the mass service on a catholic church near by. (I'm a catholic).
During the sermon, I couldn't ignore the House Sparrows calling from inside the church.
The building is a very basic one, without a celling - Just the roof.
The sparrow like to built nests there & like it as a shelter, as well.
This is true for most churches in Brazil - The House Sparrows loves the churches!!!
By the way, in Brazil the Barn Owl is called the Church Owl ( among other names).
So, I wondering why not to call the House Sparrow , the Church Sparrow???
May everyone have a great day & wonderful week!
Yours,
Paulo Boute.

It made my Year!!!
Hello!
Well, in English there is the expression: "It made my day"...In this case, I would prefer the expression: "It made my year!!!"
What?
Four Eagles in less than half an hour: Three Crowned Eagles and one Harpy Eagle!!!
Where?
Serra das Araras.
When?
Just four days ago!!!
It is a pity that mostly birders coming to Mato Grosso don't bird there - It is such a great place and the people couldn't be more bird friendly!!!
May everyone have a great weekend!!!
Yours,
Paulo Boute.

Garden Lifers !
Hello!
I do have quite a nice garden at my office in Mato Grosso.
Once in a while, I get there - totally - unexpected birds.
The most recent ones are : A Red-crested Finch, that , apparently, is living there & a pair of Toucan Toucans seen on a Cecropia tree.
Today, I'm leaving for the Pantanal. I will also go to Serra das Araras and Chapada National Park.
This time I intend to make a better video & pictures of the Harpy Eagle.
Yours,
Paulo Boute.
