“The four of us were birdwatching on an NCL cruise to the Antarctic (which worked very well). We also wanted to make the most of each day spent in the ports visited. Our guide for Puerto Madryn was Agustin or ‘Agus’ who was wonderful, his intimate knowledge not only of the birds, their habits and where to find them but also of the other wildlife of the area was first rate. This together with his unhurried pace and knowledge, which he willingly shared made for a wonderful day. It was very interesting to hear about his research, photography, and about his next book. We would have loved to have had longer and would really recommend booking with Agus. Once again Agus thank you for our memorable day.”
“Diane my wife and myself are avid Birders from South Africa. While enjoying a 15 day South America Cruise; (departing from Santiago (Chile) and ending in Buenos Aires (Argentina)). We found Agustin to be the most likeable, professional and knowledgeable bird guide. He knows the local environment and birds very well and within seven hours we had found 56 local birds including some of the very tough endemics like the Patagonian Canastero, White-throated Cacholote, Carbonated Sierra-finch and the rare Band-tailed Earthcreeper. What we enjoyed the most was the fact that he was so professional and so well prepared. He knew exactly where to take us, to enable us to successfully find the tough birds mentioned above. We enjoyed the pace of the trip and we never felt rushed and we would definitely recommend Agustin to anyone wishing to bird in the area of Puerto Madryn and Patagonia.”
“Agustin knows the local endemics —and where to find them— like the back of his hand. As an ear birder on my home turf, I especially appreciated how he could zero in on the slightest sound. And on top of it all, he’s a super-friendly guy. It’s an unbeatable combination.”
There are 15 endemic birds of Argentina (species exclusively found here). During our Patagonian tours, you’ll spot 6 of these rare species, including the Patagonian Canastero, White-throated Cacholote, Carbonated Sierra Finch, Steinbach’s Canastero (also known as Chestnut Canastero), the Sandy Gallito (tapaculo) and the Chubut Steamer-duck (a.k.a. White-headed Steamer-duck). Additionally, we’ll encounter near-endemics and endemic breeding species, such as the Band-tailed Earthcreeper, Rusty-backed Monjita, Bay-capped Wren-Spinetail, Lesser Shrike-Tyrant, Black-crowned Monjita, Burrowing Parakeet, Elegant Crested-tinamou, Straneck’s Tyrannulet, and more. We’ll also have the chance to observe other fascinating species, including the Snowy Sheathbill, White-tipped Plantcutter, and Least Seedsnipe.
At the heart of our passion for birding lies a strong commitment to conservation. We actively support NGOs through donations and memberships, contributing to the preservation of bird species and their habitats.
To minimize the impact on the birds and the environment, our tours are limited to a small number of participants. Additionally, we adhere to the ethical guidelines of birding conduct and strictly follow the American Birding Association’s Principles of Birding Ethics.
