  • Don't miss our most recent birding adventure in Israel, in the latest episode of our 'Field Guides' series.
    In this episode, Chris and Diego, along with videographers Julián and Santiago, team up for the Champions of The Flyway bird conservation race. They birded tirelessly for nearly 24 hours straight, joining over 100 people from 26 teams from all over the world. With a “not too shabby!” tally of over 100 species, the full episode reveals our team's exciting final count - definitely worth a watch!
    In this groundbreaking adventure, featuring The Birders Show whole team for the first time, they helped raise $40,000. These funds are now fueling Red-breasted Goose conservation projects led by various BirdLife partners in Bulgaria and Kazakhstan.
