In September 2013, four Nature Manitoba members (Rudolf Koes, Peter Taylor, Gene Walz and Brad Carey) spent three weeks exploring some of the wild places of southern Brazil. The emphasis was on birding, with over 400 species identified, but we also came back with memories of friendly people, great food, some challenging hikes in spectacular scenery, crazy drivers, and fabulous wildlife sightings beyond the birds. We even got to see a soccer match in the jungle! Peter, Rudolf and Gene will share images and anecdotes from their adventure.
