Birds of Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego and Antarctic Peninsula
ISBN: 9-568-0070-40
2003
Comprehensive field guide to all the resident, migrant and vagrant birds of Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego and Antarctic Peninsula, including the Falklands and South Georgia Islands. This is a unique region on the planet including the frozen austral fjords of Chile and the steep Argentina Atlantic coast that is virtually teemed with wildlife. Between are the Valdivian temperate forests that are the realm of the Chucao Tapaculo and the windy arid Patagonian Steppes where Rheas and Tinamous travel in groups. The guide describes over 400 species with over 2000 colour photographs. Descriptive accounts are provided for each species covering identification, status, range and habits. Distribution maps are also included. It is hoped that this book will inspire the reader to observe, learn and therefore protect the rich but also fragile birdlife of this remote outer corner of the world. Leave a Comment

No matter to which part you go in Chile. You better bring everything from swimsuit and shorts to all-wheather jacket and fleece. As the climate in most parts is rather dry and the mountains accompany you from north to south, temperature changes can be enormous. Also in Santiago. Leave a Comment

You need clothes for warm (desert zone in the north) and cold days( patagonia in the south ).In the north and the middle of chile it may be very hot , and in the south you need very warm clothes .
By all you need in europe or in the bigger cities of chile , otherwise you have no chance to get the right things for your camera .That may be often in the smaller cities or villages !!!! Leave a Comment

Pack light if you possibly can especially if you will be traveling on buses and small planes.
We were there in Sept.. It was springtime but still in the 50's with a strong wind most days. It is probably a good idea to dress in layers and take along a waterproof jacket. Comfy shoes are a must.
You can get camera supplies in the towns but it is best to take along everything that you will need.
If you are going to the southern end of Chile, you will need fuel, extra tires, drinking water, food, and tools. Leave a Comment
