If you are interested in birds, then you probably know that Brazil is one of the best places for bird watching. With more than 1800 bird species, Brazil is one of the most biodiverse countries with respect to birds. About 60%<\/a> of all bird species in South America occur in Brazil. Among them are, for example, hummingbirds or toucans, but also tyrants and tanagers. All of them are typical birds for America.<\/p>\n

Of course, for me it was obligatory to learn and see more about birds in Brazil during my journey through the South of this country.<\/p>\n

At the end we decided to visit the Itatiaia National Park in the state Rio de Janeiro. On one hand we were already close to the Itatiaia National Park as we visited the city Rio de Janeiro, and on the other hand, I had heard before that this place was extremely rich in bird diversity. I took notice of the Itatiaia National Park for the first time on Instagram. On this social platform I became aware of very beautiful photos from a user (@birdsrio_birdwatching). As the Brazilian wildlife, and especially the Brazilian birdlife, was absolutely new for me, I decided to book a tour at BirdsRio Birdwatching.<\/p>\n

However, before I tell you more about the tour and all the birds I had seen, I give you some more information about the Itatiaia National Park.<\/p>\n
