Welcome to Northern Minas Gerais! An area of Brazil that has recently entered the world scenario for birdwatching due to the rediscovery of a species that was almost 80 years with no ecord!! The beautiful Blue-eyed Ground-Dove. In the areas we visit on this route, you will have the chance to visit good, preserved patches of caatinga habitat (Montes Claros and Peruaçu), here you will see many Brazilian endemic caatinga specialists and you will also visit some areas of Cerrado and Campo Rupestre in Botumirim, changing completely the set of birds you will encounter.
Good Birding!
