Our England Birds & Gardens tour visited some of t

Our England Birds & Gardens tour visited some of the best birding sites and formal gardens of eastern England was an absolute delight. Of the latter, Beth Chatto’s Gardens were a big hit, along with the contrasting Barnsdale, Fairhaven and the world-renowned Kew; while among the avian highlights were stellar views of specialities such as Dartford Warbler, Bearded Reedling and Eurasian Spoonbill. There were also a few unexpected bonus birds along the way, and that long-standing favourite of gardeners, locals and overseas birders alike, European Robin. On top of those headlines, we also enjoyed the picture-perfect villages tucked away in this part of England and country pubs.

Seventeen days, seven lodges, and a transect that

Seventeen days, seven lodges, and a transect that carried us from the dry inter-Andean valley of Puembo up to the páramo above Papallacta, across the Chocó cloud forest of the western slope, over the eastern Andes, and down through the foothill forests of Sumaco into the deep Amazon at Sani. Our Grand Ecuador Birding Tour recorded 556 species of birds — a total that reflects not just Ecuador’s astonishing diversity, but also the patience, sharp eyes, and camaraderie of a group that pulled together every single day.

This was a wonderful journey right across the Hima

This was a wonderful journey right across the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan, From pristine forests to the more human-influenced landscapes, we experienced some of the best birds of the east Himalaya. 351 species of bird, and 19 mammals, were seen. Among the many highlights mentioned by our group of travellers included Rufous-necked Hornbill, the critically endangered White-bellied Heron Tawny Fish Owl, Satyr Tragopan, Ward’s Trogon, Beautiful Nuthatch, and Fire-tailed Myzornis, alongside more widespread (but no less stunning) birds like Ibisbill, Slaty-backed Forktail, and Long-tailed Broadbill.

Among the mammals, highlights included the beautiful and range-restricted Golden Langur, Bhutan Giant Flying Squirrel, and Siberian Weasel. As if that wildlife wasn’t enough, it was invariably encountered among spectacular scenery, often with a backdrop of blooming magnolias and rhododendrons.

This tour is made even more special, though, by the human element of Bhutan. The ever-friendly people, the culture – including the temples we are lucky enough to visit, and the food of a unique country cannot be overlooked, as great as the birding is.

New Zealand is one of those rare places that deepe

New Zealand is one of those rare places that deepens your appreciation for the natural world in ways you don’t quite expect. Its landscapes are rich with endemic birdlife, dramatic scenery, ancient forests, and moments that linger long after the journey ends.

This tour delivered an exceptional 147 species, including standout rarities such as Erect-crested Penguin, Baillon’s Crake, Brown Skua, and South Island Wren. We enjoyed intimate encounters with White-capped and both Royal Albatross species, found two Australasian Bitterns, and had remarkable, open views of Spotless Crake and Buff-banded Rail. Forests were alive with the calls of Rifleman and Tomtit, and we were privileged to observe a Northern Royal Albatross feeding its chick. We had exceptionally close views of Black-fronted Dotterel, as well as superb penguin and kiwi encounters. We enjoyed the curious behaviour of New Zealand Robins and Fantails, and had the rare opportunity to observe Royal Albatrosses with chicks, which was truly special.

A deeply memorable journey, filled with remarkable wildlife, stunning landscapes, and moments that will stay with us for a lifetime.
