| Site Notes for Brazil | ||
| My thanks go to Jeremy Minns for allowing me to host his site notes. These have become an essential part of any birder's literature when visiting Brazil. Jeremy and I will be updating the notes as and when necessary/possible. So, if you have any comments or details you think should be included or corrected please feel free to contact either of us. My thanks also must go to Arthur Grosset who previously hosted these notes for graciously letting me 'inherit' them. His site still remains a fascinating and attractive place to look for photos and information about, not just South American but, birds from many different parts of the world. Many of Arthurs photos adorn this site, especially in the 'latest news' section. These notes complement Bruce Forrester's Birding Brazil, which is the best source of birding information for the country. The notes should be read in conjunction with Birding Brazil and a road map. Quatro Rodas' Guía Rodoviário is recommended, available from most book-stalls in Brazil. At the same time buy Quatro Rodas' Guía Brasil, a guide (in Portuguese) to hotels, restaurants and tourist attractions, with maps and general information. The last hotel listed for each town in the Guía Brasil is the cheapest and will be simple but adequate. You will find cheaper and lower quality places that are not listed.
