Parque do Espinilho Birdwatching with Roberto Botelho
A private 4- to 7-day birding route to Parque Estadual do Espinilho and the distinctive dry woodland around Barra do Quarai.
About this tour
This private route reaches Parque Estadual do Espinilho near the Uruguayan border, within Barra do Quarai municipality. Roberto Botelho highlights its distinctive espinilho woodland, a vegetation type with a very limited distribution in Brazil.
The landscape supports specialist, endemic and migratory birds associated with the neighboring regions of Uruguay and Argentina. Roberto’s target list includes woodland birds such as Scimitar-billed Woodcreeper, Chaco Earthcreeper and Checkered Woodpecker, together with Yellow Cardinal and other localized species.
Espinilho is a remote destination, roughly 800 km by road from Porto Alegre. The four- to seven-day route is therefore planned around current access, transport and field priorities. Exact dates, daily sequence, lodging, meeting point, price and included services are confirmed after an inquiry, and sightings remain conditional.
