Birds checklists by places

 

São Miguel dos Milagres (AL)

 

 

        Here follows a birds checklist observed by Antonio Silveira in São Miguel dos Milagres County region, north coast from Alagoas State, in April 2006, where, in some days, 84 species have been observed.

        The observations have been done mainly at Toque Beach, Tatuamunha River and Triunfo Farm. José Caetano has welcomed us.

        There is monoculture exploitation (sugar cane and coconut), but in a lot of farms there still are original atlantic wood, where interesting birds species can be observed.

        It's a good region for developing the observing tourism.
