Bruno Rennó

Bruno is from Resende, state of Rio de Janeiro, at the foot of the beautiful Itatiaia National Park. During his school holidays he traveled to the interior of Minas Gerais, at the home of his grandparents, in the confines of the Serra da Mantiqueira and since his childhood was an active and obsessed birder.

His passion for birds led him to study biology at the university, with a focus on ornithology. Bruno is a true field ornithologist and enjoys natural history, biogeography, conservation, and bird vocalizations. He has a keen ear for bird sounds and deep knowledge of Brazilian bird vocalizations, which has led him to make a number of significant discoveries in the environment, such as a possible new Oropendola species recorded in the Amazon region of Mato Grosso state.
Since 1998 he travels regularly throughout Brazil and has observed birds in almost every state of his country. He is a nature photographer and sound recorder, and has compiled an extensive collection of photos and sounds with over 1300 species of Brazilian birds, including many rare, endemic and endangered species. In 2012 he was a member of the team that represented Brazil in the first World Birding Rally Challenge held in Peru.

Bruno’s love for birdwatching and his enthusiasm in the field is contagious, and he loves to share these experiences with other birders, appreciating the challenges of searching for rarities and target birds.

Bruno lives with his wife and young son in Itajubá, in the Mantiqueira mountains, in the south of Minas Gerais, between two of the most beautiful birding areas in southeastern Brazil, Campos do Jordão and Itatiaia National Park.

BBE provided another superb tour with a skilled, hard working guide who very quickly worked out what made us tick and adjusted his style accordingly. I’d love to bird with Bruno again sometime.

The guide, Bruno Renno, was truly exceptional in every way - fantastic birding skills.

This was an excellent tour of Rondonia and Acre lead by Bruno, with superb birds throughout and the right balance of time at each site.

We warmly thank all the Brazil Birding Experts team for our memorable 30 days custom tour in Brazil !
Everything was just perfect : pre-trip exchanges for the preparation of the itinerary, management of last-minute changes, remote assistance where we were not guided and of course our three different guides, Andre De Luca (12 days in the Manaus area), Bruno Renno (3 days in Itatiaia NP) and Daniel Mello (2 days around Rio de Janeiro).
They were all top birders, knowing perfectly songs and calls, top spotters and perfect travel companions for us and our children (13 and 15 years-old), always ready to adapt the initial plans to improve our bird and mammal list. We will be so happy to travel again with them when we will be back in Brazil !
