Our fieldwork in Bolivia in 2001-2005 resulted in several interesting ornithological records, including at least nine new species for the country (see previous news item). These records are published along with details of localities, a map and 4 photographs, in this month's edition of Bulletin of the British Ornithologists' Club.
