Growing up near the bird migration hotspot that is Long Point in southern Ontario, it’s no wonder Adam Timpf developed a passion for birds. It doesn’t take many migrating warblers to get a kid hooked on birding! With a biology degree from the University of Guelph, he has worked on bird related projects with a variety of consultants, government agencies, and NGOs. Currently he leads bird tours, does bird-related field work, and operates a native plant nursery at his farm near Long Point. His restored agricultural fields provide habitat for many breeding songbirds and is often a featured stop on our Pelee birding tours that he often guides.
Guiding across Canada on our various Canadian tours, Adam is equally comfortable guiding internationally. A world traveller, he studied ornithology in Sweden and previously lived in Taiwan and South Korea. He has a passion for birding globally and has made birding pilgrimages to Tanzania, Costa Rica, Panama, Belize, Guatemala, Colombia, Peru, Chile, and Argentina. Having previously guided in Southern Mexico and Guyana, Adam is at home guiding in Central and South America.
When on tour, Adam is keen to use his all-around naturalist skills to point out interesting plants, butterflies, moths, dragonflies, and other wildlife that one encounters when in nature.
