The hotel by the Rio Pixaim is well situated for sneaking out for a bit of lunchtime birding in the gallery forest. Despite the heat there were plenty of birds about including
White-lored Spinetail (above),
Mato Grosso Antbirds (below),
Red-billed Scythebill and
Helmeted Manakins.

Male Mato Grosso Antbird.

This cracking
Rufous-tailed Jacamar was very approachable by the side of the trail allowing super close-up views.
