Introduction Peru is a very interesting birding destination. With almost 1900 species observed in the country it is

one of the most bird rich countries in the world only surpassed by Colombia in diversity. Peru also

has a little more than 110 endemics. Peru is a very large country roughly 3 times the size of Sweden.

With such a large country and only a limited time of 4 weeks our choice was to concentrate on

northwest Peru.

We contacted Boris Herrera, having had him as a guide on our 2008 Ecuador trip we were confident

that he would do a great job guiding us in northern Peru. In hindsight it was definitely a wise choice.

Boris is not only very knowledgeable about the birds he is also a very nice and pleasant person to

bird with. If you want to contact Boris you find his contact details on www.endemicbirds.com

The main objective was as usual to see as many species of birds as possible and in particular

endemics. We had a few target species of course and two of them were Marvellous Spatuletail and

the charismatic Long-whiskered Owlet. We also wanted to include a pelagic trip in the itinerary. Boris

came up with the itinerary below. The itinerary largely follows the classical northern Peru birding

route. We recorded 713 species of birds during the trip, including 39 endemics. We also saw 14

species of mammals, a few amphibians and reptiles and 100’s of butterflies.

Most of the photos in the report were taken by Janis. You can find more of his photos from the trip

Site descriptions Below you will find brief descriptions of the major birding sites that we visited. Included for each site

are also notes on birds observed (and in the rare case birds that should have been seen ;-). In

brackets after the site name is the region in Peru.

Pelagic Máncora (Piura) Máncora is a small city in northern Peru which means it is in the northern part of the Humboldt

current and does not get as many sub Antarctic seabirds as southern Peru. The warmer water in the

north does however attract birds like Waved Albatross and Galapagos Petrel. Other birds seen

included Pink-footed Shearwater, Nazca Booby and Sabine’s Gull. We also saw about 10 unidentified

whales and a Green Sea Turtle. We had two pelagic trips on two consecutive days. The original plan

was to have the second day as backup.

Unfortunately Anders missed this part of the trip due to a delayed flight. Instead he spent a day in

Amsterdam making Boris envious with observations of e.g. Mute Swan and Eurasian Magpie.

We stayed about 15 km south of Máncora in a small village called Organos. A few kilometers north

along the road there was a good birding spot just where a small stream crosses the road. To the

cagrin of Anders a Jabiru was seen here. Well out of it´s normal range. Other birds along the road

were Coastal Miner (endemic), Parrot-billed Seedeater and Short-tailed Field Tyrant.

Jabiru Jabiru mycteria

Coastal Miner Geositta peruviana

Quebrada Frejolillo (Piura) Quebrada Frejolillo near Limon is the(?) best place to see White-winged Guan in the wild. We spent

half a day here and saw 4 guans. The ravine (quebrada) and the road leading to it also holds a

number of other hard to find species like Pale-browed Tinamou, Red-masked Parakeet (only seen

here),Peruvian Screech-Owl, Tumbes Hummingbird, Elegant Crescentchest, Grey-breasted

Flycatcher, White-headed Brush Finch and the endemic Tumbes Tyrant.

Tumbes Tyrant Tumbezia salvini

Tumbes Hummingbird Leucippus baeri

White-winged Guan Penelope albipennis






Limón de Porculla (Piura) The road to Jaén from Olmos goes over the pass Abra Porculla. We birded a side track near the town

of Limón de Porculla which is at about 1600 m elevation. This is a good place for some high altitude

tumbesian endemics even though the habitat is a bit degraded. Some of the species seen include

White-winged and Bay-crowned Brush Finch, Tumbesian Tyrannulet, Piura Chat-Tyrant (endemic),

Line-cheeked Spinetail, Chapman’s Antshrike, Purple-collared Woodstar and Grey-chinned Hermit

(ssp. porcullae), Pallid Dove (only here) and Chestnut-crowned Antpitta.

While in this area we stayed at El Remanzo lodge in Olmos. Stellan managed to see his bird no. 3000

a very beautiful Plumbeous-backed Thrush. This was of course celebrated with sparkling wine!

Bosque de Pomac (Lambayeque) Although mainly a protected historical site (Batan Grande) Santuario Historico Bosque de Pomac also

protects some tropical dry forest. Situated about 30 km north of Chiclayo it protects about 5900 ha

of fairly well preserved forest. The main target birds here are Peruvian Plantcutter (endemic), Rufous

http://bosque-pomac.blogia.com/



Flycatcher (endemic) and Tumbes Swallow of which we saw all. There is also a possibility to see

Black-faced Ibis in this area but we missed it.

Rufous Flycatcher Myiarchus semirufus

Peruvian Plantcutter Phytotoma raimondii

Santa Rosa fields – Puerto Etén (Lambayeque) Southwards from the town Pimentel is an open landscape with coastal marshes and beaches. This

stretch is called Santa Rosa fields. In and around Pimentel we saw 10’s of thousands Franklin’s Gull.

On beaches and over the sea other species like Kelp and Grey-hooded Gull, Peruvian Pelican and

Band-tailed (Belcher’s) Gull can be found. A few Brown Pelicans were also found with the more

common Peruvian Pelican. The marshes and fields hold species like Coastal Miner (endemic), Many-

colored Rush Tyrant, Least Seedsnipe, Yellowish Pipit, Wren-like Rushbird and Tawny-throated

Dotterel.

Further south in Puerto Etén birding from the pier is recommended. A lot of sea birds can be seen

here. Yet further south a breeding colony of Blue-footed and Peruvian Booby and Peruvian Pelican

can be found at Punto Etén. Here is also a breeding station for Humboldt Penguin, not tickable

unfortunately.

Band-tailed Gull Larus belcheri

Many-colored Rush Tyrant Tachuris rubrigastra





Blue-footed Booby Sula nebouxii and Peruvian Pelican Pelecanus thagus

Rio Chonta (Cajamarca) Not far from Cajamarca is the Rio Chonta valley. This is an easily accessed site for the rare and local

Grey-bellied Comet (endemic). We only saw one bird during our morning here. The canyon is also a

good place for White-winged Cinclodes and Torrent Tyrannulet. Birding along the stream in the

canyon was rewarding and produced species like Black Metaltail (endemic), Giant Hummingbird,

Rusty-crowned Tit-Spinetail (endemic), Black-crested Tit-Tyrant, White-browed Chat-Tyrant, Peruvian

Sierra Finch and the common (here) Band-tailed Seedeater.

In Cajamarca we stayed at Hotel Hazienda Yanamarca, a very nice hotel a few kilometres south of the

city. In the evening we heard Koepcke’s Screech-Owl here.

Black-crested Tit-Tyrant Anairetes nigrocristatus

Black Metaltail Metallura phoebe

Further up-stream in the upper section of the canyon we found birds like Mountain Caracara,

Andean Hillstar and Mourning Sierra Finch.

San Marcos (Cajamarca) About 60 kilometres south of Cajamarca where the road serpentines down towards the small town

San Marcos is a ravine on the left side of the road. This is apparently a good site for Great Spinetail

http://www.haciendayanamarca.com/index-eng.html




but unfortunately we missed it. We did however have a few good birds like Buff-bridled Inca Finch

and White-winged Black Tyrant. Black-necked Woodpecker is also possible here. Along the road from

Cajamarca to San Marcos is a small lake called Laguna Suyuscocha. Here we found the only Andean

Coot that we saw during our trip and White-tailed Shrike-Tyrant was also present here.

Buff-bridled Inca Finch Incaspiza laeta

Cajamarca – Celendín – Balsas (Cajamarca and Amazonas) We birded a few places along the road. First from Cajamarca to Celendín we stopped at La Encañada.

The best birds but certainly not the only ones was Shining Sunbeam, Sword-billed Hummingbird (the

only one seen on this trip), Giant Hummingbird, Black-tailed Trainbearer. We also heard (saw?)

Rufous Antpitta of the cajamarcae-subspecies. We also saw the endemic Rufous-eared Brush Finch.

Band-tailed Sierra Finch and Mountain Caracara were both seen along the road towards Celendín.

Rufous-eared Brush Finch Atlapetes rufigenis

Shining Sunbeam Aglaeactis cupripennis

From Celendín to Balsas we birded along the road. We stopped at a few places in the morning (closer

to Celendín) and then birded our way down to Balsas which is in the Marañon valley. The habitat was

progressively drier the closer to Balsas we came. This is because the west slope of the valley sees

very little rain. Never the less it produced some nice birds like Bare-faced Ground Dove, Black-necked




Woodpecker (endemic), Grey-winged and Buff-bridled Inca Finch (endemics), Chestnut-backed

Thornbird (endemic), Jelski’s Chat-Tyrant and Dusky-capped Flycatcher. Close to Balsas 2 Pacific

Pygmy Owls showed themselves very nicely.

Balsas (Amazonas) We spent New Year’s Eve and Day in Balsas. As it turned out a very memorable New Year’s Eve. We

stayed at a very simple establishment, basically walls, roof and a bed. The restaurant was a very

simple place yet an extraordinary experience or as expressed by Boris: ”Well, it’s not even a house”.

Nevertheless we had a good home cooked dinner from the open fire.

Marañon (Peruvian) Pigeon Patagioenas oenops

View of Balsas

The main target in Balsas is the rare (BirdLife estimates a population between 350-1500 individuals)

Yellow-faced Parrotlet. Which we all eventually managed to see well. An Andean Gull flew by the

river and we also saw a few Marañon Pigeon. Further east towards Abra Barro Negro we stopped

and found the Marañon Crescentchest.

Marañon Crescentchest Melanopareia maranonica


Abra Barro Negro (Amazonas) The road from Balsas at about 900 m to the high pass of Abra Barro Negro at 3500 m above sea level

is to say the least adventurous. It serpentines its way up the mountain side, the views are breath-

taking if you can enjoy them while riding the narrow road with very steep slopes on the side.

We birded a few places along the road but the real reward is when you get to and around the pass.

The habitat is humid montane forest. Unfortunately for us it was very foggy when we were here but

we still had some good birding. We found birds like the endemics Coppery Metaltail and Russet-

mantled Softtail. Other birds included Andean Guan, White-throated Quail-Dove and hummers like

Purple-throated Sunangel, Glowing Puffleg and some of us also saw a Coppery-naped Puffleg

(endemic).

Russet-mantled Softtail Thripophaga berlepschi

Andean Guan Penelope montagnii



Leymebamba - Jaén Along the road from Leymebamba to Pedro Ruiz we stopped at a couple of fields with orange

flowers. Both places had hundreds of hummingbirds. Species included White-bellied and Spot-

throated (endemic) Hummingbird, Little and Spot-throated Woodstar and the very common

Sparkling Violetear.

Spot-throated Hummingbird Leucippus taczanowskii

Little Woodstar Chaetocercus bombus

Along the road from Pedro Ruíz to Jaén we were lucky to see Fasciated Tiger Heron. In a tree were 2

Bat Falcons perched. Fairly close to Pedro Ruiz was an area with seemingly very nice moist forest

habitat. This area is well worth exploring. We only stopped for a short time and saw e.g. Blue-black

Grosbeak. Closer to Jaén in drier habitat we found Little Inca Finch and Red Pileated Finch.

Jaén (Cajamarca) In Jaén we stayed at Prim’s Hotel. We birded a few different places in the vicinity of Jaén. 3 km north

of the city is some rice fields and with some scattered (sewage?) ponds. Here we had birds like Wood

Stork, Purple Gallinule, Paint-billed Crake and Spotted Rail.

West of Jaén we birded the so called antenna road. Along the road we saw, after some hard work, 2

Tataupa Tinamou. Here we also had Marañon Slaty-Antshrike, Black-capped Sparrow of the nigriceps

subspecies, Grey-chinned Hermit and Russet-crowned Crake.

South of the city the habitat is a bit drier. We stopped at about 5 km south and managed to find the

endemic Chinchipe Spinetail, Tawny-crowned Pygmy Tyrant and Little Inca Finch.

Paint-billed Crake Neocrex erythrops

Wood Stork Mycteria americana

About 50 km north of Jaén past the small town of Chirinos you can still find some nice forested areas.

E.g. we found White-winged Brush Finch of the distinct subspecies paynteri, Red-billed Parrot and

Chestnut-bellied Thrush. We also heard Scaled and Plain-backed Antpitta.

On the evening of January 2nd Anders 40th birthday was celebrated with cake (Peruvian style) and

Pisco!

White-winged (Paynter's) Brush Finch Atlapetes leucopterus ssp. paynteri

Pomacochas and surroundings (Amazonas) In Pomacochas we stayed three nights at Las Brisas. The town is over-seeing the lake with the same

name. At the pier there is a reed which holds Plumbeous Rail and Subtropical Doradito. In the

surrounding grassland we found Puna Snipe, Andean Lapwing and Grassland Yellow Finch.

Subtropical Doradito Pseudocolopteryx acutipennis

Andean Lapwing Vanellus resplendens

Close to Pedro Ruíz we passed a place where there seemed to be a salt lick, 100’s of Scarlet-fronted

Parakeet and Scaly-naped Amazon were flying around here. Going from Pedro Ruíz to Pomacochas

you pass by Huembo Interpretation centre which is managed by ECOAN. They have hummingbird

feeders which holds a lot of hummingbirds. During our short stay we saw 10 species including the

very rare and local Marvellous Spatuletail (endemic). Other species seen included Purple-throated

Sunangel, Little Woodstar, Violet-fronted Brilliant and White-bellied Hummingbird.

Marvellous Spatuletail Loddigesia mirabilis

A few kilometres down towards Pedro Ruíz there is a gravel road to the right leading to San Lorenzo

and the so called Rio Chido trail. The walk up here is quite strenuous at least in pouring rain. Despite

bad stomach and not feeling well Christian managed to join us on this walk. We had a very rainy

morning here but still managed to get some good birds. Pale-billed Antpitta (endemic) called and

eventually one showed very well. Other birds seen were Violet-throated Starfrontlet, Yellow-billed

Cacique and Drab Hemispingus.

A few kilometres down the road towards Abra Patricia is road going to Yambrasbamba. Around here

is still some very good habitat and we had two good visits to the area. The road we followed

eventually came to a quarry. Here we heard several Rusty-tinged Antpitta (endemic). We also saw

Golden-headed Quetzal, White-capped and Straw-backed Tanager, Black-eared Hemispingus and

Emerald-bellied Puffleg. The quarry itself is a white sand area which could be very interesting to

explore further.

Abra Patricia (Amazonas) The Abra Patricia reserve is owned and managed by ECOAN. We stayed two nights at the owlet

lodge. The pass is at about 2400 m. This is the now famous place for the enigmatic Long-whiskered

Owlet. During our stay here the weather was to say the least bad. Raining almost constantly. When

we arrived they immediately showed us Chestnut Antpitta (endemic) that come to feed just close to

the road. We also heard Rusty-breasted Antpitta. The first day we birded mainly along the road. We

had e.g. Maroon-belted Chat-Tyrant, Inca Flycatcher (endemic), a male Royal Sunangel (endemic),

White-collared Jay and Strong-billed Woodcreeper. Around the lodge were a lot of hummingbirds

attracted by the feeders. Around the lodge we also saw Tayra and Black Agouti and Rufous-banded

Owl was calling in the morning.

Speckled Hummingbird Adelomyia melanogenys

Fawn-breasted Brilliant Heliodoxa rubinoides

The second day we stayed in the reserve. The morning was spent on ”Monkey Trail”. Here we had

birds like the endemics Lulu’s Tody-Flycatcher and Rusty-tinged Antpitta. Around the lodge we had a

few Yellow-scarfed Tanager (endemic), Amethyst-throated Sunangel, Andean Tyrant and Rufous-

capped Thornbill.

Yellow-scarfed Tanager Iridosornis reinhardti

Amethyst-throated Sunangel Heliangelus amethysticollis

In the evening we birded down along ”Owlet Trail” in hope for the elusive owlet. The weather

improved a little bit and our hope increased. Along the trail and waiting for the dark we found Ochre-

fronted Antpitta (endemic), White-backed Fire-eye and tawny-bellied Hermit. From dusk we waited

for what seemed forever. Suddenly a faint hoot far away. We followed the track without lights and

with all the raining the last days it was more of a stream than an actual trail. Eventually we came

closer and we could all hear the hoot of the LONG-WHISKERED OWLET. We tried hard but could not

locate the bird. Happy, wet and tired we walked back to the lodge and a well-deserved dinner.

Afluentes, Aguas Verde (San Martín) Continuing east from Abra Patricia it is well worth to stop at any patch with good habitat. One of the

known places is called Afluentes at about 1600 m elevation. We birded along the road here and had a

lot of good birds e.g. Andean Cock-of-the-rock, Ecuadorian Tyrannulet and Cinnamon Neopipo. The

area seemed very good for tanagers and some of the species seen were Huallaga (endemic), Golden-

eared, Orange-eared, Bay-headed and Blue-browed Tanager. At a flowering bush along the road we

had hummingbirds like Glittering-throated Emerald, Royal Sunangel, Rufous-vented Whitetip and

Wedge-billed Hummingbird. Between Abra Patricia and Afluentes we were also very lucky to see

Yellow-tailed Woolly Monkey just close to the road. At about 1400 m.a.s. there was a house on the

left side of the road (coming from Abra Patricia) with a big gravel field on the right side. If you stop





here you can ask the boy in the house to show you the birds of the area. He was very helpful with his

machete. We saw Ash-throated (endemic) and Yellow-breasted Antwren in this area.

Further down (east) we stopped where the road crosses a small river. This place is called Aguas

Verdes and here we saw Yellow-crested Tanager and Striolated Puffbird.

Andean Cock-of-the-rock Rupicola peruvianus

Huallaga Tanager Ramphocelus melanogaster

Royal Sunangel Heliangelus regalis

Rioja (San Martín) In Rioja we stayed at the Gran Bombonaje Hotel. We made a boat trip on Rio Romero a few

kilometres north of the town. The boat trip was arranged by Manolo at the Gran Bombonaje Hotel.

Along the river we saw monkeys of 4 species; Common Squirrel Monkey, Brown-mantled Tamarin,

Venezuelan Red Howler and Silvery Woolly Monkey. The small stream that we travelled with canoe

was probably a tributary to Rio Romero. It was sometimes very difficult to pass fallen trees etc. and

the birding was a bit difficult. Nevertheless we saw Limpkin, Greater Ani, White-throated Toucan,

Pygmy Antwren and Black, Grey and Band-tailed Antbird.

In the surrounding savannah we saw Rufous-sided Crake, Black-banded Crake, Point-tailed

Palmcreeper and Black Caracara.

Venezuelan Red Howler Alouatta seniculus

Moyobamba (San Martín) In Moyobamba we stayed at a great place with an excellent view, just south of the city, called

Orquidario Wakani. The owner Carlos can be contacted by e-mail: [email protected]

They also had a very good garden for birding, not least a lot of hummingbird feeders. In the garden

we saw Rufous-crested Coquette, Blue-tailed Emerald, White-chinned and Golden-tailed Sapphire

and Sapphire-spangled Emerald. At dusk we heard Ferruginous Pygmy Owl, Band-bellied Owl, Rufous

and Spot-tailed Nightjar. All from the garden…

We followed the road

about 2 kilometres

south to a place

called Ruminyaco.

Here we walked a

trail to the right of

the road. Still some

good habitat around

here. Golden-collared

Toucanet, Lettered

Aracari and Stripe-

chested Antwren

among others.

Fiery-throated Fruiteater Pipreola chlorolepidota




One morning we made a quite strenuous walk from the Orquidario. Despite some rain after a few

hours we managed to see some good birds like Chestnut-throated Spinetail, Northern Chestnut-

tailed Antbird, Andean Laniisoma and Fiery-throated Fruiteater.

Yurimaguas Road (San Martín) In Tarapoto we stayed at the very good and newly opened Tucan Suites. Though the hamburger is

not recommended in the restaurant, the food was in general very good. Anders was struck with food

poisoning and missed almost one day of birding.

Going northeast from Tarapoto on the road to Yurimaguas takes you through some very good

habitat. Basically anywhere where it is safe to stop is OK for birding. All the way up to the tunnel and

beyond is very good. Wattled Guan, Brown-mandibled Aracari, Black-and-white Hawk-Eagle, White-

winged Parakeet, Chestnut-throated Spinetail, Dotted and Yellow-backed Tanager were some of the

birds seen here.

Yurimaguas road

Cliff Flycatcher Hirundinea ferruginea

Continuing further beyond the tunnel going downhill again we eventually came to a place (about 750

masl) where they have hummingbird feeders. We had Koepcke’s Hermit (endemic), Grey-breasted

Sabrewing, Green Hermit, Gould’s Jewelfront and Black-eared Fairy at the feeders. The surrounding

habitat is of course also good with Golden-headed and Fiery-capped Manakin and more.

Pumarinri (San Martín) The last three nights we stayed at Pumarinri lodge which is located along the road to Chasuta on the

banks of Huallaga river. The birding around here is fairly good. The birding is done mainly from the

main road. The best birding was towards Tarapoto along a dirt track to the right. Birds found around

the lodge included King Vulture, Rufous-breasted Hermit, Long-billed Starthroat, Pale-legged

Hornero, Southern Chestnut-tailed Antbird, Sulphur-bellied Neopelma and Olive Oropendola.

Coming from Tarapoto, at the southern end of Juan Guerra there is a dirt track to the left. We

followed this road and had some nice birding in dry habitat. Birds seen here were e.g. Ornate Hawk-

Eagle, Stripe-necked and Pearly-vented Tody-Tyrant and Rufous Casiornis.

Further south we made a half day trip to Quebrada Upaquihua. The habitat is similar to that around

Juan Guerra. We manage to see some good birds including Grey-necked Wood Rail, Planalto Hermit ,

Plain-breasted Ground Dove, Straight-billed Woodcreeper and Short-billed Antwren.
