Our Costa Rica Caribbean tour is almost completely

Our Costa Rica Caribbean tour is almost completely spent on the Caribbean slope, but covers a great elevational gradient from the páramo on the high mountaintops of Irazú Volcano where many endemic species live among the giant Costa Rican Red Oaks and the breathtaking Resplendent Quetzal feeds on wild avocados. One of the highlights of this tour is by far the raptor migration as we visit the funnel point in the south east of the country where the mountains come down to the coast and concentrate the migrants through a very narrow passage-way and giving us the opportunity to see kettles of thousands of hawks spanning the sky. The variety of habitats and elevations make this a greatly diverse trip. This tour also has a strong educational and conservation component as we visit several of the projects led by the Cerúlea Environmental Association and learn about their efforts on the ground to create and protect habitat, as well as a visit to an organic shade-grown coffee farm at Café Cristina. We also had the opportunity to see three species of monkeys and a variety of other wildlife.

Borneo is surely one of the top birding and nature

Borneo is surely one of the top birding and nature destinations in the world! On our Borneo: Bristleheads & Orangutans tour we had many birding highlights including the fabulous Bristleheads at Sepilok, some great looks at Black-crowned and Blue-headed Pittas, various secretive babblers and assorted Broadbills, and the Great Argus! And then of course there was the rather mind-blowing afternoon on the Kenabatangan River when a parade of 6 of the 8 Hornbill species showed.

We also did extremely well for mammals (the Bornean Pygmy Elephant encounter at Kenabatangan was wonderful, and the night hike at Sepilok - Colugos, Tarsier, Slow Loris, Giant Red Flying Squirrels - was very successful), with mother and child Orangutan right next to our hotel at Sepilok!

Our September birding adventure through Nova Scoti

Our September birding adventure through Nova Scotia was a wonderful blend of coastal scenery, migration magic, and maritime charm. From the vast mudflats of the Minas Basin alive with Semipalmated Sandpipers and Peregrine Falcons, to the songbird-filled forests of Blomidon, every day offered new highlights. On Brier Island, we were treated to an unforgettable boat trip amid puffins, phalaropes, and jaegers, followed by incredible close-up views of Buff-breasted Sandpipers at Pond Cove. Along the South Shore, Cape Sable Island and Daniel’s Head dazzled with swirling flocks of shorebirds and a surprise Laughing Gull and Franklin’s Gull. We wrapped up with scenic stops at Peggy’s Cove and Ketch Harbour, sharing stories and seafood to celebrate a fantastic week of birding, camaraderie, and classic Nova Scotia beauty.

On our Saskatchewan Cranes & Geese tour, it didn’t take long to locate the Whooping Cranes, a.k.a. North America’s tallest bird. Some cranes were in small family groups of two parents and one brown-marbled juvenile, whereas others formed flocks of 50+ birds. All in all we tallied roughly 100 Whooping Cranes that day, which accounts for an astounding 15% of the wild population! We were fortunate to hear their resonant baritone cries and to see these goliath birds in flight.

Our Tropical Australia birding tour was filled wit

Our Tropical Australia birding tour was filled with incredible birding, wildlife encounters, and stunning landscapes from start to finish. Beginning in Darwin, we enjoyed sightings of Red-collared Lorikeets, Rainbow Pitta and Gouldian Finch. In Kakadu National Park, we cruised among crocodiles at Yellow Waters, admired ancient rock art at Ubirr and Nourlangie Rock, and spotted local specialties like Red Goshawk, Banded Fruit-Dove, Chestnut-quilled Rock-Pigeon and White-lined Honeyeater. Highlights continued in Pine Creek and Katherine with Hooded Parrots, Apostlebirds and Yellow-tinted Honeyeaters. From mangrove boardwalks to billabongs, and savannahs to sandstone escarpments, the group enjoyed an unforgettable week of birding and camaraderie in the Northern Territory.
