Discover birds and enjoy nature without leaving Asunción The Botanical Gardens contain one of the few remaining tracts of  native forest in Asuncion. From its trails, you can see colourful birds such as Plush-crested Jay, Pale-crested Woodpecker, Hooded Tanager, Tropical Parula and three species of Warbler. It's also a good place to find troops of Brown Capuchin, which are quite confident in the presence of humans.
