Uruguay is a country consisting of vast lush Pampas grasslands, crisscrossed by rivers, streams, lagoons and wetlands all hidden deep in ravines that house thick native forests.

It is impossible to go birding in Uruguay without getting in touch with the traditional gaucho culture associated to this unique the landscape, the extensive stock breeding and freedom that greets you.

Uruguay’s small size (176,000 km2) is a stark contrast with its bird diversity. There are 485 distinct bird species from 73 different families, of which 67% are permanent resident species. The figure takes on another dimension when compared to other territories in the region: the Uruguayan bird life constitutes 42% of Argentina and 26% of Brazil’s, in an area that accounts for 6% and 2% of the territory of these countries.
