Organizer
Birding since the age of four, Adam travelled extensively across the world from his family home in the UK in search of birds, animals, culture and amazing places. He took his first independent overseas trip at the age of 17 and hasn’t stopped since. He has led dedicated birding trips to New Zealand, Madagascar, Ecuador and the Galapagos, among many others. Having seen over a third of the world’s bird species, he now focuses his efforts in East Africa where he now resides. His favourite birds are trogons. He has produced five photographic field guides to the birds and animals of the Masai Mara, Serengeti, and Kenya’s Rift Valley. He currently uses a Canon R5 with Canon 100-500mm lens.
