    Where/how to hire a guide in Borneo?

    Hello, So I didn't have much luck with my previous questions, they were probably too vague - I've since made progress in researching my trip. From what I understand, the birding circuit is pretty much standard (looks like it'll be a Sabah trip exclusively, unless I have a lot of time, or other...

    Tentative Project Borneo Trip March 2023

    Hello, I am thinking of going on a month long trip to Borneo next March. Aside from birdwatching (main interest), I'd also like to take the time for herping (with guides - I can't do that by myself), in the same locations I'll be visiting for birds, and diving off Semporna (maybe 3-4 days...

    Binos with sturdy eyecups

    The eyecups on my Pentax SD 8x42 WP have broken, after only two years of use, this is the second pair of Pentax to which it happens (first one was a pair of DCF 8x36 IIRC), and I'm a little peeved... I've sent them to the reseller for repairs, but it's still unclear whether the warranty will...

    semi-organized solo birding trip ?

    3 weeks just freed up in late september/first half of october, and I was thinking of going birdwatching in Brazil. I probably won't have much time to research or organize by myself. Last year I booked a trip through an agent, a first in my life, in Madagascar, with madagascar-tour-guide.com (if...

    Amazonian bassin self-guided birdwatching lodge near Tena?

    I'm in the middle of devising a 17-day birdwatching trip in Ecuador starting in Quito on the 12th of february, and I'm currently leaning towards going down the eastern andean slopes. After stopping at the usual suspects - Guango, San Isidro, Wildsumaco, ... - it looks like I might possibly...

    Help with location choices - february trip

    I'm planning a trip to Ecuador in february (on my own), I'll have a total of 17 full days. I'm going there exclusively to watch birds, but I don't consider myself a "serious" birder : I certainly get very excited when I spot rarities, but I take it more as a way of enjoying nature, and as a...

    Hello!

    Hi everyone, I've been lurking on and off on this forum for a while now, ususally visiting a few weeks before traveling to one or another remote location - I haven't tried much birding in my home patch of dowtown Paris |;| - and I've always found excellent information, so a big, belated, thanks...
