I was fortunate to see some 75 different bird species while travelling for the month of February in northern Argentina.
Not having a field guide, I relied on the help of my birding friends at Eco-portal de Piedra and also Alex Earnshaw, a relative by marriage.
Not all the birds were easy to photography but below are some of the better ones I managed to capture.
