As part of the Wildlife Conservation Society Birds of Brazil giveaway we asked readers of 10,000 Birds to name the bird in Brazil that they would like to see more than any other species.

For Corey, this was a weekend without a single standout species but with many birds that were pretty darn neat. If you’ve blogged about your weekend experience, you should include a link in your comment.

Today we are looking at two species that can be difficult to separate under typical field conditions. I have encountered this situation only one time in my birding experience.
