Maybe winter is not your cup of tea, ?

Did you have enough of winter yet? Did you plan for your escape or are you just going to sit it out? I tell you what, North Peru is absolutely cooking right now! Just the right temperature, and loads of birds. Everyone wants to go to see the Marvelous Spatuletail lekking.

This is just a short message to let you know, that there are two additional confirmed departures to North Peru between now and end of March, apart from the two that were already confirmed. We just finished a North Peru tour of 10 days, and a new North Peru birding tour of 16 days is about to start next weekend.

The male Spatuletails are performing RIGHT NOW just like on this video.

We have a few spaces left on the upcoming tours. Either 16 days full North Peru itinerary or the very short 5 day Spatuletail and Owlet tour. Which one do you prefer?

Jan 26-Feb: 10 Complete North Peru Chiclayo to Tarapoto 16 days.
Feb 13-17: Short North Peru with start from Tarapoto for 5 days with an extra day at Waqanki on the 18th
March 9-24: Complete North Peru Chiclayo to Tarapoto 16 days.
March 26-31: Short North Peru with start from Tarapoto for 5 days.

You will see Marvelous Spatuletail on any of these.

Also, wanted to let you know that I will be at Space Coast Birding Festival during next week. Hope to run into a lot of old friends.

Saludos

Gunnar

PS. The Långkalsonger video comes with subtitles in English and Spanish. It tells a story of my avid relationship with winter in Sweden and a practical piece of clothing. If you like classic RocknRoll like Chuck Berry, ACDC, Status Quo and Dr Feelgood, you probably like this one. And now you can understand the lyrics too. We had a lot of fun recording it.

Oh, one more thing. We are introducing two more trips on the 7WondersBirding.com website this week. Southern Spain with Iberian Lynx and Alhambra in May and Tasmania in June. And in April and over Easter we run several short Peru trips back to back, so you can join for 5, 10, 15 or 20 days. I would give more info here, but we are reworking the 7WondersBirding website. By Wednesday the new updated version shall be on line. More info on the upcoming trips between
