Helder had purchased a voucher to tour the region of the Itatiaia National Park and Serra da Bocaina. He managed to schedule this weekend to come with his brother Fernando. After receiving the list with the birds they would like to photograph I prepared the script. In these 3 days we went to bird in 3 different states, being Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Minas Gerais. There were many lifers and Fernando passed the milestone of 400 photographed species.
