Join us on an exciting virtual tour of Borneo with Keith Valentine. This exceptional destination is one of the major ABA tour offerings this year and we are delighted to bring you a unique, in depth look into what this fantastic island has to offer.

Borneo is a land of exciting mammal and avian diversity, from endearing and sought after mammals like Bornean Clouded Leopard and Bornean Orangutan to the wildly outrageous, weird, and wonderful Flying Lemurs and Squirrels, Proboscis Monkeys and Gibbons. The birds are just as incredible with vibrant pittas, trogons and hornbills, not to mention the chance to find Borneo’s superstar bird, Bornean Bristlehead!

Keith has spent many hours seeking out all the treasures that call these rich tropical rainforests home and offers a great deal of first-hand experience birding Borneo. We look forward to taking you on this virtual adventure with us next week!

Join us for a virtual Andean adventure with Rob Williams. Southern Peru is well known as one of the most bird rich places on earth! This topographically diverse country hosts a wild and wonderful array of fabulous bird species, from magnificent Andean Condors to the outrageously plumed Andean Cock-of-the-rocks. Unlike other top-ranking Neotropical birding destinations, Peru has vast tracts of forest and wilderness untouched by civilization, two-thirds of the Manu Biosphere reserve, for example, is completely unexplored, home to un-contacted stone-age tribes as well as the birds!

Rob has spent his fair share of time exploring Peru and offers a huge amount of valuable insight into birding this stunning country. We look forward to taking you with us on a virtual adventure through Southern Peru!

Bobby Wilcox will be virtually taking us to the very best birding spots the Dominican Republic has to offer! This incredibly scenic Caribbean Island plays host to a stunning diversity of birds! 33 sought-after endemic bird species, luxurious beaches, outstanding food and vibrant culture, now that sounds like a recipe for an unbelievable birding adventure!

Bobby has had the pleasure of exploring this wonderful destination to its fullest and has the fantastic photographs to prove it! We look forward to having you join us as Bobby shares his vast knowledge into birding this Caribbean paradise.

This month Daniel Danckwerts will guide us across the vividly beautiful Indian Ocean Islands including the Seychelles, Mauritius, Reunion, Rodrigues and the Comoros. These islands are home to some of the world’s rarest birds, as well as globally significant seabird colonies!

Daniel has spent countless hours in this tropical paradise researching the genetic structure of its seabird populations, the basis for his PhD! This research has critically influenced the conservation of several globally threatened species and has spring-boarded many future research projects.

Join us for a thrilling adventure across Panama with Rob Williams. Rob is an experienced tropical ecologist and birder who specializes in the New World tropics. He has lived in South America for 15 years, firstly in Ecuador and then Peru, although he is now based in the UK. He has guided birding tours on seven continents and seen over 6,500 species in the process.

Panama is perfectly situated as a gateway between South and Central America, giving it a unique combination of Neotropical specialities from both and a total number of species of around 1,000.

Paul Varney will be virtually taking us around the best birding and wildlife areas of Northern India. Having led tours to this region and with more than 40 years birding experience, Paul will be sharing many stories, stunning images and experiences with us, we’re in for a treat!

As well as a fantastic selection of special birds, like the monotypic families of Ibisbill and Wallcreeper, this part of India hosts iconic wildlife including Bengal Tiger, Leopard, Sloth Bear and many more!

Alex Alvarado will be virtually leading us across incredible Honduras, one of Central America’s best-kept birding and wildlife secrets!

Honduras supports more than 700 bird species and various habitats including over 30 separate cloud forests, where the likes of Keel-billed and Tody Motmots, Lovely Cotinga, Chestnut-colored Woodpecker, Red-capped Manakin, and many more can be found.

Having grown up in Honduras, Alex became interested in birds many years ago whilst working for a hotel located in this Mayan City, before taking a job at Macaw Mountain, a bird park and Nature Reserve located just outside of Copán. This in-depth experience in treating birds opened the window for his passion.

Björn Anderson will be walking us through iGoTerra, an incredibly versatile platform on which to log bird, mammal, and reptile sightings.
