I'm not completely sure about the ID of this bird, since Patagonian Mockingbird is supposed to have a completely black tail. But the color of the upperparts was more Patagonian-like.. Whatever it was, it was really confident and climbed on our car's antenna!

This species is not very easy to photograph because usually they run away very quickly. They are hunted in Patagonia and this might be the reason for their lack of confidence!

It is fascinating to watch Egrets on the hunt. They move the water just to attract curious fish and the they snap at it as it gets close!

This species is quite localized and it also took me quite a while to get the picture... it came every time to the same fruit but just for a split second! Interestingly, it was sucking from a little hole it made into the peel!

Not a great picture but this bird is not very easy to see! They are usually hidden in the reeds. I was fortunate enough to see two of them, and I had to take a picture just for the records!!
