Monte Alegre do Sul and Pousada da Fazenda are very cool!
I decided to return once again for a birdwatching trip, or better said, an owling trip.
I returned in September, after my last visit in July, and my main goal of the owling was to see a Tawny-browed Owl that stays at a known spot on the farm where it's possible to see it during the day.
We started our search for the owls in the middle of the afternoon, after observing some hummingbirds like the Amethyst Woodstar and the Sapphire-spangled Emerald and American Barn Owl as well.
The first quest was for the Tawny-browed Owl, but animals have their own wills, and that day it wasn't on its perch.
We then went in search of other owls and were able to see, still in daylight, a pair of Great Horned Owl with a chick.
We moved on and stopped in a marsh area to observe some marsh birds; we could see the funny Streamer-tailed Tyrant, Yellow-rumped Marshbird, Great Pampa-Finch and others.
With the sun setting, we went after Rusty-barred Owl. Along the way, we managed to hear the Common Pauraque and Band-winged Nightjar and finally saw the Rusty-barred Owl.
