401 !!!
And short after bird species number 400 we have a new record: 401 species so far ! This time I had a excellent sighting of 4 red shovelers (Anas platalea, marreco-colhereiro). This species of dabbling duck breeds in southern Chile and Argentina and has never been recorded in the Pantanal before.It has a unique bill, very large, black and of spoon shape, similar to the roseate spoonbills (Platalea ajaja, colhereiro).What a sighting ! and the pictures are OK (compared to the last one):
