They have the necessary field experience to know the best stops and patches of wilderness for birds at each of our programs’ localities and have worked extensively assisting Amazonia’s foremost ornithologists, gaining the necessary field identification experience. Although RFE’s birding trips are not designed for and will not satisfy the hard core, fanatic birdwatchers, they are ideal for the very interested, more than casual birder with diverse interests.

By combining two reknown destinations, Cusco and Tambopata, the birdwatcher will have an excellent opportunity to explore some of the best bird sites representing all of the principal ecosystems along a cross section of southern Peru.
With a total of thirteen days of birdwatching in Cusco and Tambopata (with the necessary stopovers in Lima), the rainforest portion of the trip provides encounters with spectacular birds such as large eagles, six species of macaws including the Scarlet Macaw and maybe the Blue-headed Macaw, Sunbittern, Horned Screamer, Orinoco Goose, Razor-billed Currasow, Pale-rumped Trumpeter, Spix’s and Common Piping Guan and Curl-crested Aracari. Among the rare or endemic species easily found around TRC are: Scarlet-hooded Barbet, White-cheeked Tody Tyrant, Black-capped Parakeet, Rufous-fronted Antthrush, Cinammon-rumped Foliage Gleaner, Bamboo Antshrike, Manu Antbird, and White-lined Antbird.
