RSBS – Dedicated to finding you birds!
São Paulo Antwren.
Looking at Brazil for your next birdwatching destination? Well, if you are there is no better place to start your Brazilian adventure than here in Ubatuba. A quiet seaside town nestled between the forest and the ocean, it has long been a popular birding destination with the easily accessible forests coming right up to the town’s edge.
White-necked Hawk, Saw-billed Hermit, Slaty Bristlefront, Orange-eyed Thornbird, São Paulo Tyrannulet, Fork-tailed Tody-Tyrant, Buff-throated Purpletuft and many more special and endemic birds surround us here. And we are about two hours from the locations of both the, as yet undescibed, São Paulo Antwren and the Black-hooded Antwren.
Birding in Folha Seca.
Due to increasing demand RSBS is now expanding and we are able to offer the services of excellent Brazilian guides who can provide guiding services almost throughout Brazil. See our guides page.

HI Rick- We could not get enough of the birds or the vistas in Uba Tuba- we lucked out with a nice weekend on the 20th of September. Thanks for you call – we hung out at Folha Seca and Pria Dura.
Would you be free Oct 17 and/or 18 to show us around ?
Or we could go to Itatiaia. I am free on weekdays – Oct 27-29 or John and I both get away on Oct 30-31.
Hi Annie. Sadly on the 17th and 18th of October I’ll be in Minas Gerais doing the Minas Triangle tour. The 28th and 29th I am here in Ubatuba, but the following days, although I am here in Ubatuba I will be leading groups of photographers from the WikiAves web site. May I suggest you e-mail me on rick@rick-simpson.com for us to organise any arrangements you want to make.
Hi Richard,
Now I had time to visit your webpage(s) …. you do a pretty good job!!!! I got some usable pictures from the common Potoo … not great but okay. Sadly I didn’t have the time to revisit the location.
If you need a picture or you want to link to the zoomin http://www.hofmann-photography.de/html/7d_iso200_c_potoo.html
feel free to do or send me an e-mail.
I am planning to do the first workshop around next July … would this be a good time to stay ranchos do pica-pau.
The group would be around ten people we also would go to Frank (3 pinheiros) and some other spots.
Have a great time
Geraldo & Fernanda
Maybe we go to Ubatuba around Feb. 20 but we will shoot you an e-mail!
