"What a thousand acres of Silphiums looked like when they tickled the bellies of the buffalo is a question never again to be answered, and perhaps not even asked." -Aldo Leopold
I recently returned from a work trip to Brazil that covered a good portion of the southern states of Sau Paulo, Parana, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. Of course I had to find a little time for birds and photography. I plan on sharing a number of images from the trip here and on Flickr.
