I am on my way to Torres del Paine on Feb 8 and am looking forward to seeing even a portion of these birds. Thanks. I will be studying them so I can sound intelligent on the trip. Eleanor Balaban@ www.EleanorBalaban.com

I am a Patagonia based avian research biology. In particular, I'm a Magellanic Woodpecker specialist, having studied this species for 9 years, and I'm sure to affirm that yours are the best pictures ever posted on the web. Congratulations!
