    ....Coastal Chile, Peru and the Humbolt Current - by Angus Wilson. 
      The Humbolt Current brings cold Antarctic water to the surface along the coast of Chile and Peru, supporting an immense fish population which in turn attracts great numbers of seabirds. An exciting host of species are endemic to the Humbolt Current: Humbolt Penguin, Markham's Storm-petrel, Hornby's Storm-petrel, Peruvian Diving-Petrel, Peruvian Pelican, Peruvian Booby, Guanay Cormorant, Red-legged Cormorant, Grey Gull and Band-tailed Gull.

    ....Birders Journal Tour of the Manu World Biosphere Reserve -
      Manu is simply the birdiest place anyone could travel to, a pristine reserve where avian speciation reaches dizzying proportions. Although the itinerary was designed to concentrate in a few areas, our list still topped 500 species and we were all aware of the birds that we might have seen if only we had a little more time…..
    ...
    ....Rio Abiseo National Park - In addition to the many birds
      found at lower altitudes, altitude zonation has strongly influenced the avifauna; there are over 132 bird species between 3,000m and 4,100m. More threatened species include nine endemics to the country and five species of restricted distribution, found otherwise only in the northern part of Bolivia. The park is the northern limit for the distribution of a variety of scarce species.
    ...
    ....Huascaran National Park - Some of the most notable
      bird species of the 112 that have been recorded include Gurney's buzzard, Andean condor, giant hummingbird, giant coot, and ornate tinamou.

    ...
    ....Wetlands of La Puna - At an altitude of 3,500 - 4,000m, La Puna or 
      the High Andean Plateau of the Central Andes, is shared by Argentina, Bolivia, Chile and Peru. It is a cold, desert region with intense solar radiation and strong winds which cause extreme temperature variations. Yet in the middle of this desert landscape, the greatest explosion of life is without a doubt associated with the lakes and 'salares'; the great variety and number of birds, many of them endemic to La Puna, is particularly striking.
    ...
    ....Paracas Regional Reserve, Ica, Peru. Part of the Western 
      Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network. The Paracas National Reserve is the most important point along the Peruvian coast for many species of mammals, including two species of seals, 160 species of birds, and numerous fish and shellfish. It hosts large colonies of guano birds. There are tens of thousands of shorebirds that feed about 15 miles north at the Río Pisco Mouth, and spend the night within the reserve boundaries. 
    ...
    ....Reserva Comunal de Tamshiyacu-Tahuayo - The western Amazon 
      rainforest, found in Peru, is known to have the greatest diversity of flora and fauna found in the world. Biologists refer to this region as the "green paradise" of the Amazon forest. 
    ...
    ....Expedition Tambopata - Madre de Dios province of Peru - By 
      Harold Armitage. The Tambopata research Centre was featured in the B.B.C. documentary "Look who's talking". It was too much for my wife. Twelve months later we set off on an expedition to the Tambopata Research Centre and the adjacent "clay lick" where hundreds of parrots come daily in order to eat clay. It is assumed this protects them from the poisonous seeds which is a major part of their diet in the dry season and possibly provides trace minerals.
    ...
    ....Andean Hummingbirds, June 1999 - by Tom Davis. I had finally 
      talked my wife Ellyn into participating on an Earthwatch expedition, and we were in Manu National Park in Peru, volunteering our labor on a hummingbird research project. We were trying to capture as many hummingbirds as possible so their flight characteristics could be tested, but there's no such thing as a net that catches only hummers -- we spent perhaps two-thirds of our time extracting other birds and freeing them.

      By Simon Allen. After a very successful trip last year, I was delighted to have the opportunity to return to northern Peru in the summer of 2000, to lead the same tour for Kolibri Expeditions, in addition to visiting a number of little-known areas in the centre of the country. See also, Simon's 1999 report.

    ....Trip Report: Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia - 6 June – 5 August 1999. 
      By Samuel Hansson with Mathias Bergström. Mathias and I had only met once before, very briefly, when we decided to make this journey together. As Mathias only had 4 weeks of vacation to spare, I decided to continue on my own after he'd gone home. South America is fantastic and the birding unrivalled! As long as you keep yourself well informed about where it's safe to go and not, and as long as you use your common sense, you should be safer in Peru, Ecuador, Colombia or any other South American country than in many European or American cities.

    ....Birdwatching in Peru - Jul.-Aug. 1997, by Erik Mølgaard, Jesper 
      Meedom & Ulrik Andersen. (NOTE: part way down this page, this excellent and extensive trip report can be downloaded in Word format). In July and August 1997, the excursions committee of the Copenhagen chapter of the Danish Ornithological Society (DOF) carried out its first tour to Peru. The tour was designed to give the participants a good coverage of the most typical habitats and of the biodiversity of the country. We concentrated on four main areas: The arid coastal areas between Lima and Paracas, the high Andes between Lima and Lake Junin, areas in and around the Cusco valley and the famous Manu biosphere reserve.

    ....Trip Report: Southeast Peru - 8 May - 1 June 2000. By Garry George. 
      The unique thing about the itinerary of this trip was the ability to spend time in all the habitat zones. The Manu Road from Cusco to Atalaya travels through all of the zones (except Polylepis forest) with prolonged stops at different elevations.
    ...
    ....Trip Report: PERU: Cuzco to Lima - 4 – 11 Sept 1999. By Jon 
      Hornbuckle. We only had time to visit Bosque Ampay and the Rio Apurímac Valley, spending the rest of the time driving to Lima with some birding stops. Bosque Ampay was good, meriting longer than we had available, but the Apurímac Valley was disappointing. Our final day was spent going up to Marcapomacocha Road returning         down the Santa Eleulia Road. See also Jon's 1998 Report.

    np..Manu Wild Life Center - A 35-minute flight
      from Cusco to the mouth of the Manu River and a 90 minute boat ride down the Madre de Dios River brings you to the single best wildlife destination in the entire Amazon: Manu Wildlife Center
    ...
    np..Amazonia Lodge - Hacienda Amazonia is the perfect place for a 
      few days of rest for visitors traveling between the Andean Highlands and the lowland forests of Manu.  It is an old tea plantation in the Andean foothills and is now being allowed to return to original forest.  There are miles of good trails, a long shady entrance road, and lots of spectacular birds and primates.  Part of the allure of course is that more than five hundred species of birds have been recorded on the property of the Hacienda Amazonia. 
    ...
    np..Tahuayo Lodge - in the Reserva Comunal de Tamshiyacu-Tahuayo. 
      Travel to the lodge requires that you fly into Iquitos, Peru. From Iquitos we take you by boat up the mighty Amazon River, for a distance of about     50 miles, then up the Tahuayo tributary, another 40 miles. All guests of the lodge are allowed unlimited canopy access (using a zip-line canopy system). 
    ...
    np..Pantiacolla Lodge - The scenic Pantiacolla Lodge in the 
      Manu foothills is the obvious choice for the second night on a road-and-river entry to the Manu lowlands. This 16-bed lodge with communal toilets and showers is owned and operated by a family of long-term rain forest pioneers in partnership with the two conservation groups Selva Sur and InkaNatura. Though the lodge clearing offers superb birding without even stepping into the forest, the 20 km of gridded forest trails in all habitat types offer unparalleled access to the world's finest birding forests. .

Endemics and Specialities

in Peru

Information on endemics and specialities is derived from Sibley & Monroe checklists and bird distribution lists in Thayer's Birder's Diary - Version 2.5, supplemented by material found in Where to Watch Birds in South America - by Nigel Wheatley. South American speciality birds, while not endemic, are those that can only be found in three or less countries of South America. Information on endangered birds is derived from the IUCN Red List, Birdlife International, and supporting data bases developed by Ian Patton, of Merlin Species Watcher.  The endemic, endangered and speciality birds may be uncommon, extremely rare vagrants, may be extirpated in the country now or may only be present in migration. However, documented sightings of each species noted below have been made in Peru.
