Birding in Venezuela with Terry Rich
Venezuela is an incredibly diverse country with an astonishing number of bird species and wonderful people. Terry Rich visited Venezuela in May 2007 for an international bird conference and birding tour. This talk will look at the birds, habitats, and people of the country. Terry says, “Although I have visited the Amazon Basin many times, I have never seen mixed flocks as diverse as those in the Venezuelan Amazon.”
This program is free and open to everyone.
