Dove si incontrano tre biomi

Few places on Earth bring together three such different biomes within a few hours’ drive. In Rio Grande do Norte the Atlantic Forest of the southern coast, the Caatinga of the interior and the coastal wetlands — estuaries, salt pans and mangroves — create a bird diversity out of all proportion to the size of the state.

The Caatinga is the only exclusively Brazilian biome and holds endemic species found in no other country. The best window runs from the end of the rainy season onward (March to July), when the interior turns green and breeding activity peaks. The salt pans of Galinhos and Macau concentrate shorebirds and migrants; the area around Pico do Cabugi and the Apodi region hold the Caatinga endemics.
