Bolivia, June 2011

I will be in Bolivia from June 3 to June 28 attempting to find at least 200 new birds while seeing one of the most dramatic countries in the world. The plan is to start in Santa Cruz at 400m (1365'), move up to Samaipata at 1700m (5580'), then Cochabamba at 2570m (8445'), and finally to La Paz at 3640m (11940') and its surrounding areas, including La Cumbre at over 4700m (15420').

In case anyone stumbles across these postings looking for direction on a birding trip, I have included prices for most services like accommodation, transportation, etc in Bolivianos (at the time of my trip $1=Bs7). When listing birds, lifers are denoted at bold and italics; new birds for the trip are denoted in bold.
