    Tortoises in Romania

    Could anyone help confirm the ID of these 2 tortoises seen in eastern Romania. I gather that there are 2 species, Spur-thighed and Heerman's. One was in sand dunes along the Black Sea coast and the other in a quarry about 25km inland. Many thanks

Most books have a publication date at the front, but there is none here, so I think that it may well have been a private publication. I have had a look at several...

    Birding Venezuela: Junglaven lodge

    I have made 2 trips to Venezuela with Chris Sharpe as guide and leader and I can say with no reservation that you will not find a better leader.
