Birding trip to Atlantic Rainforest, Brazil

By -
It's again winter up here and days are short so I have time for remote birding. Got three "lifers" today from Luciano Breves's cameras:

Allen's Hummingbird (Selasphorus sedentarius) (USA)

Pale-breasted Thrush (Turdus leucomelas)

Female Blue Dacnis (Dacnis cayana)

Location: Brasilia

Pullus Verraux's Eagle Windy and rainy weather out there, here in Finland. Good excuse to practice some remote birding. I decided to go to South Africa this time. See what I found :) Pullus Verreaux's Eagle ( Aquila verreauxii )! And bit later an adult arrived to nest too. In addition to those, some unidentfied bird sounds... At least some Swift, sounded like Eurasian Swift (Apus apus) , but I can't be sure about it yet. Also sounds that reminded me of Starling and many odd sounds...
