    Ann and Roland Go Birding in South East Africa

    We went to the Cape Area in 2017 and our excellent and very enthusiastic guide recommended the south eastern area for our next trip which we finally got round to organising last year. It had always been on my Wish List to go to Kruger so I was really looking forward to this. Did it live up to my...

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in Uganda. June 2023

    We were missing Africa so decided to visit the areas of Uganda hadn't birded on our previous trip with Johnnie Kamugisha in 2015. We had stayed in touch with Johnnie and his lovely wife, Agnes, since then seeing them regularly at Bird Fair so he was the obvious choice.

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in Portugal. The Algarve. April 2023

    We hadn't been to Portugal since our honeymoon in 2016 and hoped to see that the countryside was still as quiet and undisturbed as it was then once you got away from the main drag ........ It was ;)

    Ann and Roland go Birding in Peru. November 2022

    This was our second trip to Peru. We had been to the South in 2019 and were very careful not to book with Omar Diaz (Captain Chaos) of Peru Birding Tours again, choosing Steve Sanchez instead. We thought the trip had been sabotaged by a plane crash in Lima just as before we set off from home...

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in North east Argentina. September 2022

    Another re-arranged trip due to Covid. Argentina were, I believe, the last country to re-open their borders. We had had to wait a couple of years for this. Would it be as good as we had hoped? You bet it was, and more! So good that we booked another trip before leaving.

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in India India (Kashmir/Ladakh/Rajhastan) July 2022

    This was a trip we had arranged earlier and had had to postpone more than once thanks to Covid. Now the time had come to visit Northern India - I had always wanted to visit Kashmir. Would it live up to my dream? Would I return with a hand-woven shawl? And what about the birds, the scenery, the...

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in South eastern Brazil. April 2022

    This was a trip we had planned for February 2021 with the fabulous Brazil Birding Experts. We had birded the north with Ciro Albano the previous December and it was so fantastic that we arranged this before leaving. Then Boris opened his mouth about a virulent Covid variant and Brazil banned us...

    Ann and Roland go last-minute birding in Costa Rica February 2022

    We were supposed to be going to India in February but they wouldn't let us in so we had to cancel again. We didn't want to stay at home so went back to Costa Rica as it was quick and easy to arrange through Aratinga. Thank goodness that the airlines we had been using were so flexible and...

    Ann and Roland go lockdown birding in Costa Rica. 2021

    Travel was getting easier by now...... We had had to cancel last year's proposed trip to Costa Rica but organised this tour through Aratinga instead. I just love Costa Rica - it is so beautiful with its lush vegetation and colourful birds. Plus sunshine! I feel very much at ease there. Perhaps...

    Ann and Roland go lockdown birding in Colombia. 2021

    Our determination to continue travelling took us to Colombia too. We booked a tour through Multicolor Birding and as Colombia was on the Red List, it meant we would have to isolate at great expense in some crummy British hotel for two weeks on our return. We were absolutely NOT going to do that...

    Ann and Roland go Lockdown Birding in Brazil Christmas 2020

    This was a very last-minute trip booked as soon as we were able to visit Brazil and what a good job we slotted it in before Brazil slammed the door on us! Subsequent trips we booked have had to be postponed until goodness knows when. :(

    Ann and Roland go Lockdown Birding in Yucatan Mexico May 2021 -

    Back to Mexico again as soon as Boris let us out! We hadn't been able to go to Baja as planned in February but were eager to return and explore the Yucatan area. Wonderful to see our friend Eric again and to meet Rafael Calderon, our guide in Mexico City. Another fantastic tour and sadly, we...

    Ann and Roland go Lockdown Birding in Oaxaca Mexico August 2020

    We should have been celebrating my 70th birthday in Mexico with Eric but Covid reared its ugly head. As soon as we were able to travel again, we did exactly that and had an absolutely fantastic time with the wonderful Eric Antonio Martinez. I laughingly set him the task of finding us 70 lifers...
