Hi ,

There is a new version of my song Birdparty uploaded now on Youtube. Check it out for some fun. Some 90 species of birds are shown. Can you ID them? How many of these have you seen? Which are the favorites?

In the fourth webinar I did in the Birding Revolution series, I presented a number of ways how you can lower the cost of your birding tour to Peru with novel ideas from Kolibri Expeditions. It is called tiered pricing. 

Tiered pricing is already a reality for many subscription servicese on the web, as well as for flights or cruises. So why not for birding trips? 

Check out the webinar for these ideas. 

I am not the kind of person who gets worried or depressed easily, but on the 12th week of quarantine in Peru, I am beginning to think that there will not be many streams of income for several more months, unless I come up with ideas how to create a trickle to stay afloat. In the 13 minute video below, I am presenting some of theses ideas. 

The "Bird Photography in Peru" webinar will be ready next week. I think I will not do this live, but rather as a premiere on Youtube and Facebook simultaneously. It is published at a particular date and time, and I'd be present at that time to answer questions as people are watching it. 

There are a few reasons for this. 
1. There have been at the most 10 people or so hanging in untill the end of the webinars as they are live. So the audience have not been very large. 
2. English is not my native language, so I stumble on the words sometimes. It shall be easier to edit a pre-recorded webinar to get a better flow. 

3. The image quality and the sound with the BeLive platformn has been pretty crappy. It is possible that a paid Zoom account would look better, but for the time being I don't have the money to invest in that. 

I am blogging more now, and will do more of this, so this mean, if I continue with the blogging, that you shall get a summary posts every Friday. 

I will also do an announcement with in a seperate newsletter when the next webinar is ready for broadcasting. 

I kind of like the reach with short video updates Live on Facebook ,so I am planning to test wiht daily updates on my FB profile at 12:45 Peruvian Time (GMT-5H) and at 7.45 PM (GMT-5H) on the Kolibri Expeditions FB page in order to cover different time zones, as well as seeing what kind of reach I can get at different times. These updates will only be 5-10 minutes approximately. Let's see how this works for a few days!  First one in a about an hour. 
I'll also post the short videos on Kolibri Expeditions' YouTube Channel for those of you, who stay away from the Zuck (good for you).

Saludos

P.S. While I am at it, let me also remind you of the 3rd Birding Revolution webinar about the short Peru tours suited for everyone, and run every week (once the pandemic is over that is).
Enjoy!
