A Forest Gem

In the depths of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest, the Magpie Tanager (Cissopis leverianus) cuts a striking figure. This unique member of the tanager family stands out with its bold black and white plumage, reminiscent of its namesake, the magpie.

At Eco lodge Itororo, we’re fortunate to regularly host these charismatic birds. Observe as they move through the forest in small groups, their long tails and contrasting colors making them easy to spot among the greenery. The Magpie Tanager’s diet consists of fruits, insects, and small vertebrates, playing a vital role in the forest’s complex ecological web.

For those seeking an authentic birdwatching experience, Eco-lodge Itororo offers the perfect setting to encounter the Magpie Tanager and many other fascinating species. Here, surrounded by the serene beauty of the Atlantic Forest, you can immerse yourself in nature and witness these elegant birds in their natural habitat. Join us for a peaceful yet enriching adventure in one of Brazil’s most biodiverse regions.
