I have been to Brazil three times; twice to Sao Paulo, once to Rio de Janeiro. All three trips were for mathematics. The only birds I saw were in or near Rio and Sao Paulo. In Sao Paulo I carried with me only a cheap point-and-shoot camera; I brought my good lens with me to Rio. In other words, my photos of Brazilian birds are few and crummy (for the most part). But hey, theyÕre photos of Brazilian birds!
