Dorian Anderson

An avid birder during his childhood in Philadelphia, Dorian departed birds at age 15 and didn’t reconnect
with them for another 20 years, his attention focused on his scientific career in the interim. He earned a B.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology from Stanford University, did predoctoral research in Molecular Embryology at Harvard University, and earned his Ph.D. in Developmental Genetics and Molecular Cell Biology from New York University. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow in Molecular Neuroscience at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston but finally resigned the academic rat race in 2014 to undertake his Biking for Birds project, the first North American Big Year completed entirely by bicycle. During that incredible journey, he biked 17,830 miles (28,500 km), observed 618 species, and raised $49,000 for bird conservation.Since his adventure, he’s transitioned to guiding, writing, and public speaking. He has helped the Audubon Society
develop a number of birding routes in Colombia, and he has become an avid bird photographer, all his work viewable at Dorian Anderson Photography. He and his wife currently live in San Mateo, California with their adorable pocket beagle. He leads pelagic trips for several West Coast operators and does most of his Bay Area birding by bike.

Nick Athanas

Nick gave up a lucrative career in geophysics to go watch birds in South America a decade ago and has never looked back. He lived for 16 years in Ecuador before returning to the States, and guides all over the Neotropics and occasionally elsewhere. He has a strong passion for both bird photography and sound recording; when not leading tours, can often be found in odd corners of the world adding to his collection. His blog and almost all of his photos can be found on his personal website, antpitta.com. He is using Swarovski binoculars and scope. He is the lead author and photographer of Birds of Western Ecuador: A Photographic Guide, published in June 2016. Nick currently resides in Arizona.

Keith Barnes

Keith realized that he was no longer a scientist when a significant difference in the tail lengths of larks didn’t make a significant difference in his life! Turning his back on the ivory towers, he helped to found TB and has never looked back. He lives in quirky Taiwan, but guides birding and photography tours just about everywhere. Asia and Africa are favorite haunts though. Before Keith was able to actually see the birds he wanted to, he sat in an office and wrote about them in various books for BirdLife International. He coauthored Birding Ethiopia and Wild Rwanda published by Lynx Edicions, and Animals of Kruger, Birds of Kruger, and Wildlife of Madagascar with Princeton University Press. He is using Swarovski binoculars and scope.

Ken Behrens

As a boy, Ken discovered Flickers in the Pennsylvania woods, and has been chasing birds ever since. In his teens, he was the ABA/Leica Young Birder of the Year and the Wildbird Birder of the Year. For parts of 6 years, he worked for Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory in far-flung and usually remote locations between Montana and New Mexico. He spent one fall counting the monumental raptor migration in Veracruz, Mexico. Ken also spent parts of three years counting birds in Cape May. There he developed a particular interest in seawatching, and he is the co-author of the Peterson Reference Guide to Seawatching: Eastern Waterbirds in Flight, a ground-breaking field guide published by Houghton-Mifflin. He was a member of the team that set a North American big day record in 2008. Ken lives in Madagascar and guides tours all over the world. His non-birding interests include history, literature, climbing mountains, gardening, cooking, and eating. He is a keen photographer, and enjoys guiding photo journeys and BwC tours. Ken co-authored Wildlife of Madagascar, Birding Ethiopia, Wild Rwanda, and Birds of Kruger National Park, and has other book projects in the works.

Maurius Burger

Marius Burger realized he was no ordinary herpetologist when chameleons regularly started invading his dreams. A stint at the Animal Demography Unit (University of Cape Town) where he shared an office with Keith Barnes while working on the South African Frog Atlas Project, was a happy time for at least one of them. Nowadays Marius conducts biodiversity and environmental impact assessments in many African countries, and he regularly visits Madagascar for the fun of it. It was the island’s unique reptiles and amphibians that initially attracted him, with enough species occurring here to keep a herpetologist occupied for a lifetime. He has returned more than 30 times to guide tour groups or as part of nature documentary filming teams, and also loves the mammals and birds of this weird island. He leads Enigmatic Wildlife itineraries in Madagascar and Africa. Marius is widely published with 43 scientific papers, 73 popular articles and has co-authored books such as Chameleons of South Africa, and the Atlas and Red List of the Reptiles of South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland.

Anais Campbell

Anaïs has worked on various Tropical Birding projects, concentrating on consulting and helping new birders and bird photographers find their footing. Anaïs has co-guided in the continents of Australia, South America and North America. When not outside or attending a birding festival, she works in the office on strategy and marketing.

____________________

Iain Campbell

Iain ended his career as a geochemist in West Africa when it dawned on him that his life list was more valuable than gold. He packed up his G-pick, said goodbye to fufu, and headed to South America, which better suited his style, where he built Tandayapa Bird Lodge. He lived for many years in Ecuador, but now resides in the US. Besides being one of the original guides of Tropical Birding, Iain is near fanatical about getting more people into birding and wildlife photography, and works with many organizations trying to achieve this main goal. He used to be a fanatical lister, but now much prefers to photograph the world’s specialties. Iain uses Swarovski binoculars and scope, and shoots with Olympus camera gear.

Phil Chaon

A life long naturalist, Phil found an interest in birds while coping with the crushing reality there were not, and never would be, alligators in Cleveland. At 18 he left behind the power plants and gull flocks of his childhood and spent a year living in the Andes of Northwest Ecuador. Life among Lyre-tailed Nightjars and Ocellated Tapaculos taught him that, for him, the US was really only a place to visit between forays to the tropics. After some time studying botany and wildlife biology in the redwoods of Northern California, Phil spent the next few years taking field work jobs all over the globe. Banding birds in Peru, monitoring Fairy-wrens in Papua New Guinea, and surveying bird communities on coffee farms in Kenya were all great introductions to these areas. However, upon realizing how much data collection interfered with quality birding he turned to other channels. Now, when not guiding he can be found searching out areas with new birds and ample quantities of chilé. When the birding is slow he occupies himself with long nighthikes, diving, horticulture, fishing, and divining the secrets of perfect barbecue.

Alan Davies

Born and bred in North Wales, Alan has always been passionate about birds, and there’s nothing he enjoys more than sharing exciting birds and wildlife with other people. For six years, he was the Site Manager of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) reserve at Conwy on the North Wales. In 2008, along with his partner, Ruth Miller, he set a new world record for the number of bird species seen in a single year, during the adventure they dubbed “The Biggest Twitch”. Alan has also written the popular site guide Best Birdwatching Sites in North Wales. Alan and Ruth now operate some of Tropical Birding’s tours in Europe. Alan is sponsored by Leica.

Pablo Cervantes Daza

Pablo came to Tropical Birding by accident; this die-hard city-loving engineer had to go and help out in Tandayapa Bird Lodge for a week, and suddenly realized there was far more to life than Quito nightlife. He became hooked on bird photography and quickly started taking out professional photographers and helping with their photography workshops. He now guides photo tours all over the world including Costa Rica, Mexico, Belize, Ecuador, Brazil, Colombia, Peru, South Africa, Madagascar, India, Sri Lanka, and Australia. He is the principal photographer of Wildlife of Ecuador: A Photographic Field Guide to Birds, Mammals, Reptiles, and Amphibians, published in 2017.

Fito Downs

Fito was born in one of the most privileged regions in the world for a birder to be raised, the Caribbean lowlands of Costa Rica. Since he was a little kid he has been interested in the natural history of the rainforest, and especially the identification of birds. Since 2001, Fito has been working as a full-time guide, not only in his native Costa Rica, but in 8 different countries in all within Central and South America. Some of the areas he has guided in include Costa Rica, Panama, Ecuador, English Guyana, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Brazil. Fito has also worked as an active educator, developing naturalist guides in the fauna-rich region of Sarapiqui in Costa Rica; worked at the world famous La Selva Biological Station in the same region, both as a guide and field researcher; and previously worked for the Smithsonian Institute in Panama, undertaking biological studies in Barro Colorado Island and Soberania National Park. Fito has also been a regular contributor to the Christmas Bird Count in Costa Rica. Somewhere amongst all this, he has also found time to play basketball and soccer in his spare time, and loves nothing more than taking a dip in his local Sarapiqiui River in the tropical lowlands of Costa Rica! Fito speaks Spanish, English and Portuguese.

Lisle Gwynn

A mixture of rugged Celt and English gentleman, Lisle grew up among the heaths of southern England where, as a teenager, he quickly developed a preference for birds and beasts over video games and parties. After graduating from a British University chosen solely for its birding potential, a scholarship from the Percy FitzPatrick Institute of African Ornithology led him to the beautiful Cape of South Africa, a place he now considers a second home. There he spent several years birding widely whilst studying birds of prey and fynbos endemics. A keen photographer and ‘mammal enthusiast’, Lisle is as comfortable seeking and photographing mammals as he is birds, something he has pursued across 6 continents. With a full year at sea under the belt, spent across most of the world’s oceans, he is also a knowledgeable and obsessive ‘Petrel-head’, with tubenoses and marine mammals being two of his greatest passions in life. Lisle is shooting with Olympus camera gear.

Charley Hesse

Charley’s devotion to birds began when he could first lift binoculars to his face. Before graduation at university, he eloped with his life list to India and Mexico. He studied mixed flocks in Cameroon and compiled inventories of rainforest birds in Malaysia before heading to Japan for work in international public relations. Today, Charley works as a bird guide in five continents, having birded much of South America and over 60 countries worldwide. British by birth he is now also fluent in Spanish, Japanese and also tries his hand at Portuguese, French, Afrikaans & Mandarin. Charley uses a Swarovski scope.

Chuck (Kuan-Chieh) Hung

Chuck was born on the beautiful and mountainous island of Taiwan. He learned birding as a kid and became a serious birder in his twenties. In college, Chuck studied biology where he also met his wife in a birding club. He started guiding in Taiwan in his last year of graduate school and is working full time with the birds now. Chuck loves citizen science and is a major contributor to eBird, xeno-canto, iNaturalist and many local projects. Chuck uses Swarovski binoculars. He speaks Mandarin and English.

José Illanes

José grew up in Sani Isla, an Amazonian community in eastern Ecuador. His uncle, José Hualinga, was one of the pioneer guides of the Amazon, spawning a whole ream of quality guides that have now emerged from there. Therefore, it was only natural that José Illanes became a bird guide too, although, unusually, he began his training in the Amazon at the tender age of 12! After working at the famous Amazon lodges of La Selva and Sani (where he also helped to compile the official bird lists for the area), his reputation as a bird guide quickly grew, and so in 2002 he moved out of the Amazon and into Ecuador’s capital, Quito, after taking a job with Tropical Birding Tours and Tandayapa Bird Lodge. He is now one of the senior guides for Tropical Birding, having worked there for 14 years; and he continues to live in Quito, with his wife and young, soccer-mad son, Casey. His long-term experience as one of the most well known guides in Ecuador, has led him to make a series of overseas presentations promoting birding in both the Quito region and Ecuador as a whole, including in the US (at an ABA convention in Maine); and the UK (at the largest birding festival in the world, the British Birdfair). José has led birding and bird photography tours to many different countries including Ecuador, Costa Rica, Peru, Venezuela, Australia, and Bhutan, and traveled to a number of other countries as well. He is known for his relaxed guiding style, keen sense of humor, and, especially, his sharp eyesight, which leads to his uncanny ability to find roosting owls in the daytime, a skill that makes him a very popular tour leader!

Emma Juxon

For as long as Emma can remember, she has spent her life knee-deep, (quite literally on many occasions), in the natural world. Her innate passion for wildlife led to a degree in Zoology along the stunning Cambrian coastline of Aberystwyth, Wales (UK). Here, Emma found the abundance of Red Kite as much as a distraction as the Student Union, and graduated fueled with a desire to inspire others about the world around us. She found herself focusing her interests on birds and blubber which has taken her from the glacial high arctic to the jeweled volcanic islands of the South Pacific. After working offshore as a marine wildlife and seabird surveyor for a few years, Emma decided to hang up her coveralls and steel toe-capped boots, because let’s face it, sharing incredible sightings with like-minded enthusiasts is far more exciting than completing spreadsheets and writing reports for the offshore industry! She now resides in the Surrey Hills, UK, educating the community for the local wildlife trust when not guiding for Tropical Birding Tours. Having travelled the world to many a remote place, Emma is as at home traipsing through thick jungle to ‘sailing’ across flooded calderas in rapidly sinking rust buckets, to being sprayed in the face by blowing blue whales. Her experience took her across six continents, regions including the Arctic, South Africa, the Indian Ocean, New Zealand, South Pacific islands, and the Americas. Emma uses a Swarovski scope.

Ben Knoot

Ben is a nature photographer originally from the state of California. He has been photographing the natural world since the age of 9, focusing mainly on wildlife. It was through the lens of his father’s camera that he first observed the beautiful green and purple sheen of a Common Raven. Observing the fine hairs at the base of the birds massive bill, Ben became passionate about sharing the beauty of the natural world around him. From then on, Ben’s desire to educate others blossomed. He self-published a children’s book The Color of Birds to help young children learn their colors through bird identifications. He has traveled the United States extensively, especially in the Pacific Northwest where he completed college. While in school, Ben further honed his desire to teach with a degree in Environmental Policy and Education. Ben’s work has been published since 2007 by multiple organizations including: Natures Best Photography, Audubon, Ranger Rick, NANPA, Wildlife Photo Magazine and the BBC. Ben shoots with Olympus gear.

Wich’yanan (Jay) Limparungpatthanakij

With such a long combination of first and last names (not particularly long for the Thais, though), Wich’yanan had to come up with an easy alternate name for non-Thais to pronounce in his one high-school year in Wisconsin. Of course, it had to be a cool bird and that was how he started going by the name “Jay”. Growing up in central Thailand’s lush countryside, he has been enthusiastic in wildlife for as long as he could remember. There were hardly any decent resources accessible to average elementary school kids back then apart from Lekagul & Round’s “A Guide to the Birds of Thailand” published in 1991, so bird identification has become one of his lifetime obsessions. He has been leading bird tours as a part-time job since his college years. Also involved with various research and conservation projects, he barely spends time at his current home near Bangkok. Even when not guiding, he is exploring places looking for birds and other creatures, in Thailand and nearby countries. He is a co-author of books such as the Lynx field guide “Birds of Thailand”.

George Lin

Wildlife has always been a passion for George while growing up in Taiwan and the Jersey Shore. After serving his time in Bermuda as a software engineer, George pursued wildlife and photography by guiding in the Neotropics & Asia in places like Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Peru, Brazil, Ecuador and Borneo. George also speaks Mandarin Chinese fluently.

Alex Luna

Alex became interested in birds at a very young age when he moved to Mindo, Ecuador. As a boy, he was lucky to have the opportunity to meet great birders who inspired him to have the same passion for birds, and he got well and truly hooked when a friend gifted him a field guide to the birds of Ecuador. Alex started to keep track of the species he had seen, and he started to travel throughout Ecuador searching for more lifers. After graduating from university, Alex decided to follow his dream of becoming a guide, and he has led many trips for both birders and bird photographers. Alex uses a Swarovski spotting scope.

Alouise Lynch

Alouise could track lions before she could tie her shoelaces. Her parents decided South Africa’s reserves and national parks were better than a classroom, and she has made this her life, working in some of the most spectacular landscapes on Earth. Alouise’s eye for detail as an artist feeds into her passion for interpreting the signs and spoor of animals in the wild. She is not happy with only knowing the name of the plant in front of her, but invariably wants to know its traditional uses too. And then test them. Which has led to a few awkward moments! As the founder of Bionerds she specializes in the exceptional biodiversity of Africa and contributes to the knowledge of plants, reptiles and amphibians through research on endangered species, working alongside leading scientific institutions. Not content with knowing the diversity of a system in its entirety, her passion is generating awareness to promote its conservation. Her happy place is on her belly in the dust photographing something that most would overlook. Alouise will be leading Enigmatic Wildlife tours in Africa, where her broad knowledge will lead to many happy ‘Enigmatic’ moments.

Keir Lynch

Keir was terrified of snakes. Having spent many years guiding in Africa’s top safari reserves, he was always more comfortable on foot with elephants and lions than in the company of reptiles. All that changed when he saw his son refuse to hold a harmless Common Egg Eater and in order to break the trend he volunteered to hold the snake himself. From that moment on Keir has added reptiles to the diverse list of mammals, birds, frogs and plants that he enjoys chasing after. In a short space of time Keir has managed to find some of South Africa’s most elusive and threatened reptile species and has contributed valuable scientific data to various research projects. Keir is a Director with Bionerds and he is lucky enough to get paid to search for spectacular species in spectacular ecosystems. Surprisingly, in his spare time you can also find Keir searching for spectacular species in spectacular ecosystems! Keir will be leading Enigmatic Wildlife tours in Africa, where his broad knowledge of all things will lead to many happy ‘Enigmatic’ moments.

Ruth Miller

Originally from Kent in southeast Britain, Ruth has always had a passion for the great outdoors, and she is happiest when watching great birds in beautiful places. She worked at the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) Head Office before moving up to Llandudno in North Wales. She has written a series of walking books called Birds, Boots and Butties, which gives you a clue about some of her other passions! Ruth met Alan Davies, her partner, at the RSPB; in 2008, they gave up their jobs and spent the whole year travelling the world during The Biggest Twitch, setting a record as they saw nearly half the world’s birds. While the record has since been broken, Ruth is still the female world record holder. Ruth and Alan now operate some of Tropical Birding’s tours in Europe. Ruth is sponsored by Leica.

Scott Olmstead

Hopelessly addicted to birding, fascinated with culture, and passionate about sharing wildlife and travel experiences with others; there’s no doubt that tour leading is a strong match for Scott. Originally from Connecticut, Scott now resides amid the Sky Islands and Sonoran Desert of Arizona, but he spent his most formative guiding years living in South America and learning firsthand why it’s called “The Bird Continent”. He is equally at home searching for elusive antbirds in the steamy Amazon jungle, stalking hummingbirds in the vast high Andes, or just trying to sample all the local foods wherever he goes! Scott now dedicates much of his time to teaching Spanish, but continues to guide for TB when his calendar permits, primarily in Ecuador, Costa Rica, and Brazil. When not in the field or at school, there’s a good chance you will find him entering old sightings into eBird or watching sports on TV. Scott uses a Swarovski scope.

Daniel Aldana Schumann

Daniel was born and raised in Guatemala with an ornithologist for a father; so, he has been birding as long as he can remember. After graduating from high school, he started college but decided to dedicate his life to birds instead. Working as a field tech for researchers from Cornell Lab of Ornithology and American Bird Conservancy. Later, he was elected to be part of the Guatemalan Birding Tourism board of directors, so he started working on birding tourism and started guiding all over this wonderful birding destination. He has also been an avid e-Birder ever since he heard of it and is currently one of the top e-Birders for Guatemala, while also working on the very first field guide dedicated to the birds of Guatemala. He guides TB tours in Central America, Mexico, and South America.

Edward Themba

Edward Themba is a South African who was born and bred in Mpumalanga, in the northeastern part of the country. After a diverse series of jobs including farmer, waiter, and construction worker, he jumped at an opportunity to join a team monitoring the endangered Blue Swallow. His entrance into the world of birding soon led to opportunities to guide birding walks. He enjoyed this so much that he enlisted in guide school, with a specialty in birding. Soon therafter, Edward found his dream job as a guide based in South Africa’s world-famous Kruger National Park. There, he has developed an ever-deeper knowledge of the birds, mammals, and ecosystems of Kruger and its surroudings. If you’re fortunate enough to be guided by Edward, don’t miss the chance to try to stump him with a tree that he can’t identify. It’s a tough challenge – he’s that good!

Andrés de la Torre

Having grown up surrounded by the mountains and forests of his native Ecuador, Andrés had an early passion for mountaineering and the flora and fauna of this marvelous country. He developed a love of birding in his teens, and after studying biology, Andrés ended up devoting his career to being a bird guide. He has been leading birding tours for almost three decades now. He feels privileged to live in one of the most biodiverse countries in the world, and loves the challenge of learning about complex ecosystems and showing people from around the world the treasures of the New World tropics.

____________________

Andrés Vásquez

Andrés has been chasing birds all over his native Ecuador for well over a decade now. As part of our team he leads tours regularly in Ecuador, Argentina, Peru, Brazil, and Belize plus sporadically in Japan and other destinations. Andres has also explored Southeast Asia and South Africa learning new families and tons of new birds. Based in Quito, when not in the field, he can be found at his computer working on book publishing; he has already released several wildlife guidebooks for Ecuador, including a field guide to the birds of Northwest Ecuador, one for the birds of the Amazon and he just finished Wildlife of Ecuador: A Photographic Field Guide to Birds, Mammals, Reptiles, and Amphibians.

Crammy Wanyama

Although his full name is Wanyama Jimmy Crammy, he goes by the name Crammy. He started off in IT after getting a diploma in business administration from Kampala International University, but long hours sitting at a desk began to take a toll, and he started dreaming of a life outdoors. At that juncture in life, he met the great doyen of Ugandan birding, Herbert Byurhanga, who completely changed his life. He was quickly hooked on birding and there was no turning back, especially after locking eyes with a scarlet-and-sable Black-headed Gonolek. Soon enough he was interested in the toughest groups in Africa; the weavers, greenbuls, cisticolas, larks, pipits and honeyguides. Crammy loves showing people birds, and over the last seven years he has been able to do that while traveling intensively all over Africa, Madagascar, and North America.

Sam Woods

Sam’s unhealthy obsession for birds began with a pair of tits in a London park at age 11. He famously proclaimed the evening before “I’m not looking at birds; they’re boring”. Rarely have words haunted someone for so long. Sam was instantly hooked, starting off by spanning the British Isles in search of birds, which quickly expanded to the wider world, and has now traveled to all seven continents over the last thirty years. He has been working as a full-time guide for Tropical Birding since 2005, since when he has guided on six different continents. Sam attended Plymouth University in Devon (UK), getting a degree in Environmental Science, which led him to the Andes of Ecuador to undertake research on hummingbirds. This stoked an interest in the Americas; originally from the United Kingdom, he now resides in Ecuador (South America), but arguably spends just as much time overseas, as he does there. He is most at home, when he is away. Sam has been a co-author on several books on Australian birds and wildlife and also written a number of articles for the ABA’s Birding and Birder’s Guide magazines, as well as having written for Birding World and Birdwatching magazines in the UK too. He uses a Swarovski scope and binoculars; Olympus camera. You can read Sam’s blog Lost in Birding.

OFFICE STAFF

Cristina Campbell

Cristina is TB’s General Manager, and it is through her good work that our tours run so smoothly. An Ecuadorian, she has a thorough understanding of business in South America and beyond. She has two children, Gabriel and Amy, and currently lives in Maryland where the Tropical Birding head office is located. She is an occasional birder too, but prefers colorful toucans to skulking tapaculos. Cristina uses Swarovski binoculars.

Desirée D’Sylva

Desirée was raised in Quito, but her life has taken her on many exciting adventures to the most beautiful places in the world. She lived on merchant ships during her teens, and saw spectacular scenery and culture throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia, and is the only person in TB to have sailed through the Suez and Panama canals. After finishing a degree in history, she developed a farm in NW Ecuador to produce ecofriendly palm oil. Desirée manages our Africa and Asia logistics.

Yi-fang Wang

Yi-fang has been with Tropical Birding since it’s inception in 2001, concentrating primarily on logistics and communications in Asia, where she is based in Taiwan. Yi-fang spent 18 years in South Africa where she fell in love with the bush…who wouldn’t, and although she loves seeing leopards more than anything else, she always has a look at the colorful barbets and turacos.
