Peak: Mid-October to mid-November — the last weeks where garúa stratus still holds all day AND breeding has begun. By December the sun is back (6 sunshine h/day) and the window collapses.

Peak: October–November cited as one of two optimal periods, with good conditions and fewer visitors.

12. December, open, peak
Peak: Mid-November through December. Scarlet macaws at Tambopata lay two to four eggs from October to December (Brightsmith group), incubate ~25 days, and lick use peaks in the breeding season because adults carry clay back to chicks during the first 20–40 days of life. That puts the scarlet-specific maximum roughly mid-November into January. FLAGGED AS INFERENCE: different parrot species at the same lick peak in different months, and the scarlet's own peak month is not separately published. The breeding chain is solid; the exact fortnight is not.
Toco Toucan at Brazil

Peak: Tied to the macaw nesting cycle rather than to the toucan. Instituto Arara Azul: in flood years hyacinth macaws start breeding around July with most young flying by December; in drier years they start around September with young flying in March. Eggs incubate 28–30 days and chicks are vulnerable to toucan predation up to about 45 days old. That puts the highest density of raidable nests roughly October to January, later in a dry year. FLAGGED: this is the macaw's calendar, used as a proxy. The toco toucan's own Pantanal breeding dates are not published — Birds of the World gives Sept–Feb for Paraguay and São Paulo and Nov–Feb for Goiás/Minas/Bahia, with nothing for Mato Grosso do Sul.

11. November, open, peak
12. December, open, peak
Peak: Late November to early January. Births reported mostly November to December (Animal Diversity Web) with some sources extending to February. Mating starts about a week after a female gives birth, so male chases and fights overlap the births; breeding is reported early December to early January.
King Penguin at Falkland Islands

10. October, closed
11. November, open, peak
12. December, open, peak
Peak: November through January. November–December gives courtship and freshest adult plumage on the same cycle as South Georgia; January adds small chicks. Falklands king numbers are small and the colony is present year-round.
Burrowing Owl at Argentina

10. October, open, peak
11. November, open, peak
12. December, open, peak
Peak: November — laying is October–December, incubation 28 days, so November puts adults at burrows and December brings the first juveniles. November is also peak Valdés wildlife season generally.

Peak: Early to mid November. The Nov 2023 Cat Expeditions trip saw 5 servals in 8 days, sightings averaging 30 min at about 20 m, closest 4 m.

11. November, open, peak
12. December, open, peak
Peak: Late Oct to mid Dec: cloud cover is already 83 to 92% but wet days are still well below the Jan peak (Cusco: 6.4 wet days Oct, 8.5 Nov, 13.2 Dec). No sword-billed seasonality data found for this site, so presence in these weeks is assumed from the species being described as non migratory in Peru, not verified.

Peak: Late November to mid-December, before the 16 Dec high-season rate step and while impala lambing is at its peak. Second choice late February.

12. December, open, peak
Peak: Mid-November to the third week of December. Austral spring into early summer: the steppe is greening, days are at their longest, and this is the subspecies A. f. suinda. Magallanes holds 730 records region-wide, second only to Los Lagos nationally.

Peak: Operator states ocelots are good year-round; the discriminator is air quality, not the cat. Mid-June to end July and November are the clean-air months. Sept–Oct carries the highest dry-season fire-smoke risk; August is super-peak pricing and heat.

12. December, open, peak
Peak: Late November through December. Records by month: Dec 43, Nov 38, Jan 31, Feb 25, Oct 6. October is markedly weaker than November–December even though it is already inside the visitor season, so the skew is probably not purely observer effort — but it is partly observer effort and I could not control for it the way I could at Genovesa.

Peak: Unknown. The July to December nesting range in BirdLife's account is a rangewide figure dominated by Pantanal data and there is no published breeding calendar for the Piauí cliff nesters. Do not treat the months on this row as established.
