“Newfoundland is beautiful place to visit and see an amazing variety of birds like boreal chickadees, various murres, kittiwakes, rusty blackbirds, warblers, and puffins. Combine that with excellent birding guides and you have a fantastic 2 weeks of birding from dawn to dusk. Our trip started in Deer Lake in the west of Newfoundland and we finished in St John's in the east. In between we spent time in beautiful national parks, hiking, birding, and picnicing. I personally saw 32 new life birds plus other birds I know but had different behaviors because they are there to breed. Incredible trip. #BucketListTrip”

“I thoroughly enjoyed the the trip. I think we covered all the ecosystems. We saw most of the birds on the list we were given as well as a rare bird that was an unexpected bonus. The leaders were outstanding. Their knowledge of the the birds, flowers, butterflies and mammals was first rate. We were also treated to the history of Newfoundland. All in all it was a super trip.”
