Torres del Paine National Park birds

While I visited Torres Del Paine National Park primarily to see if I could catch a glimpse of wild pumas, I was surprised by the amount of bird life I encountered and wish I’d done a bit more preparation to find the best places to seek them out. There’s about 120 species, some of which I spotted near my accommodation and on walks. While the ones I photographed are common, its always great to see, find, and photograph new species. Here are some of them.
