Description:

Did you know there are over 10,000 bird species in the world… and Colombia has about one-fifth of them? This spring, our fellow Obsidians member, Randy Sinnott, went on a three-week birding tour of Colombia with a focus on listing birds, i.e., finding the most species. He traveled from Santa Marta to Bogota to Cali and listed over 500 species! He will give us his impressions of the country, the people, landscapes and, of course, all the incredible birds he saw. Expect to be wowed by the incredible photos of birds in his avian presentation.
