Birding and Wildlife adventures in Australia’s Red Centre and beyond.

Alice Springs Bird Tours
The most popular tour. Starting before dawn and ending after dusk this is a big day spent hunting the bird highlights of the area. From Rufous-crowned Emuwrens in the dawn light to Bourke’s Parrots at dusk, I shape the day to maximise your time with the best birds. I have arrangements in place to access the Alice Springs Sewage Ponds (min.1 business day notice required). We visit my favourites sites most of which are not in any site guidebook. In a full day in a normal season over 100 species is acheivable. As with all my trips, if you send me a ‘target list’ of species you’d like to prioritise I’ll craft a special itinerary to suit. Birding with me is a very efficient way to get the regions special species- doing it on you down can take a week or more to see what I can find you in an average day.

Simpson Desert Expeditions
The Andado region south east of Alice Springs is some of the best desert birding country in the NT, if not the whole nation. Eyrean Grasswrens live on the dune fields, Letter-winged Kites and Grey Falcon breed seasonally, Inland Dotterel and Gibberbird inhabit the gibber plains. Thick-billed Grasswren (indulkana subspecies) is also known from the area. Flock Bronzewing can be common. This trip really is an exceptional birding and wilderness experience.
