Pampas Area has the 30% of the more than 1,000 bird species which live in Argentina, due to its location and environment characteristics.

Almost all of them are common birds and can be easily watched in the rest of the country.

In fact, you won’t find those of restricted environments and difficult to be watched for normal people (Andean, Patagonian, rainforest, marine and Antarctic).

Surfing this website you will find details, comments and unknown pictures of the species which habits the Pampas area, collected “in situ” by the author in different visits to the countryside tours.

Entering to List of Birds you will find a taxonomic classification with the details of all species of the site. You can also use the menu at the footer and search by order, family, Science name or common name as well as the English names.

There are also species which are not from the Pampas area observed in occasional tours to different Argentinean environments, and a score of species which show photos taken by photographers famous, such as Ricardo E. Doumecq Milieu, Ramon Moller Jensen, Lito Camps, Ariel Panero, Ignacio Hernández, Norberto Gómez  and Osvaldo Angeli.

The texts were extracted from the “Birds of Argentina & Uruguay - a Field Guide” whose authors are Tito Narosky and Darío Yzurieta, and added descriptions of Martin Rodolfo De la Peña and Alvaro Jaramillo.

Drawings were made by Maria Gabriela Arancio.

The systematic classification includes updates published in the “Annotated Checklist of the Birds of Argentina” of Juan Mazar Barnett & Mark Pearman; in "Los Que Se Van" and "Otros que se Van" by Juan Carlos Chebez, recommendations of the SACC (South American Classification Committee) and recent publication an other authors.

The website has information and pictures of 716 bird species and 22 subspecies or geographical races with over 4500 pictures. It is also included sound files and videos (not ready but working on it) of about 400 species.
