TIJUCA FOREST BIRDS
Tijuca Forest is one of the largest urban forests in the world! She lives perfectly with the city of Rio de Janeiro. And of course, there are many birds of various species in there, a variety that is much larger than you think. Bringing binoculars to a forest trail can be a great idea, especially when it’s a more alternate trail off the main routes.
