If anyone is interested in a change of pace now that the summer doldrums are 
setting in, I have a new gallery covering the first part of the 
recent Brazilian Pantanal trip, with Kevin Calhoun and the TN Aquarium. We 
spent several days at Pousada Xaraes 
http://www.xaraes.com.br/a_pousada.asp?lang=eng  ; Birding was fantastic here, 
with this gallery containing 170 or so shots of 98 species. I will also have 
another gallery from the last part of our trip where we stayed at Pousada 
Aguape, in a higher part of the Pantanal with some different birds. We had an 
excellent guide, fluent in English, Cassiano Zaparoli, whose knowledge of the 
birds of the Pantanal is second-to-none.. 
If interested, this first Pantanal gallery is at: 
http://www.pbase.com/mctodd/brazil_pantanal_birding_pousada_xereas_2010 ; . 
Usual disclaimers apply, photos range from The Good, to The Bad, to The Ugly. 
But, hard to argue with Jabirus, Hyacinth Macaws, and Black-chested 
Buzzard-Eagle. The photos are arranged chronologically, with some species 
having photos scattered all about. 

Be sure to look at the photos at the 'original' size under the photo, to keep 
the Pbase compression from taking it's toll.

Good Birding!!
