This page was created for the information associated with the cameras appearing on the internet from sites in Central and South America. Currently Luciano Breves' camera in the southern Atlantic forests of Brazil is the main camera that I have been monitoring. It is located in his yard in the coastal lowlands near the town of Morretes. He supplies fruit and nectar all year round and has attracted about 60+ species so far. This includes a few predatory birds and local nesters that are not fruit or nectar eaters. He does put some seed around the fruit stand and has been getting more seed eaters recently. His list of birds in the Morretes region of the coastal Atlantic forest is here.

The coastal forests of Brazil are one of the most endangered habitats on the planet. Mostly due to the fact that humans enjoy this type of landscape as much as birds do and the vast majority of Brazilians live along this coastal strip. Subsequently there are some very rare birds in this habitat and Luciano has lured some to his yard.

Luciano has had several sponsors but presently he is absent a major sponsor. He has a wild preserve of acreage in the southern Brazilian wilds that is just begging for another camera placement in the forest. Click below to go to Luciano's main camera view page. There is a chat on that view page that is basic and functional but there is a separate flashchat through this site as well. Luck's registration is on the cam view page under registro (in Portuguese). It is easy to maneuver. The second cam button will get you a split chat with Luck's above and the local chat on the bottom if you wish to track both at once. The third button is for large monitors only and has two Luck view windows and a smaller lower window that has the Google Translate page as several languages are spoken at the Brazil site. It is a good way to learn Portuguese and Spanish.

You can chat about the camera with other viewers and occasionally with Luciano as well on the stripped chat on Luciano's home camera page or you can use the local chat using the button's above. Note that Luck has quite a few daily expenses involved with feeding the birds and with maintenance of equipment and connection costs. You can donate any amount below at Paypal or by other methods on his donation page. All contributions are put to use on the care and maintenance of the birds and cameras. Further info and images are at his Multiply page as well. Viewing and clicking around on Luck's pages helps as well with ad counts.

I am adding information about hummingbirds in general but specifically the hummers that can be viewed at Luciano's main camera and at the Ecuadorian Buenaventura camera that is now also viewable as Camera II on Luck's page. More info will be added as it is located. Links for images will appear there as well. Currently this page is under construction, but viewable now.
