We begin in the Denali region, exploring both Denali National Park and the wild Denali Highway for Trumpeter Swan, Barrow’s Goldeneye, Spruce Grouse, Willow Ptarmigan, Boreal Chickadee, Arctic Warbler, and, with luck, Northern Hawk Owl. Superb chances for Grizzly Bear, Caribou, Moose, Dall’s Sheep, and possibly Gray Wolf complement the birding. Time in Anchorage and on the lush Kenai Peninsula and Kenai Fjords adds coastal rainforests, seabirds, whales, and glaciers to this unforgettable Alaskan experience.",[21029,21040,21051,21062,21073,21084,21095,21106,21117,21128],{"_uid":21030,"component":5473,"items":21031,"photo":21038,"title":21},"b68ad42a-aba0-466b-a604-a6f57ddaf067",[21032,21035],{"_uid":21033,"component":5466,"description":21034},"95aca466-eb95-445f-adca-0059da6d095e","Gather

Once a remote frontier, it remains one of Asia’s last great wildernesses—home to Red Pandas, Bengal Tigers, and the world’s largest population of One-horned Rhinoceroses.

upper Texas coast is home to one of the most extraordinary spring migration spectacles in North America. Each April, millions of birds arriving from the American Tropics cross the Gulf of Mexico and descend into coastal groves, marshes, and wetlands—sometimes in breathtaking numbers when weather triggers a migration “fallout.” This tour centers on High Island, Bolivar Flats, Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge, and inland pine forests, where warblers, shorebirds, rails, and Southeast specialties converge. With flexible daily planning guided by weather, expert leaders, and an ever-changing cast of migrants, every day brings abundant discovery along this vibrant stretch of the Gulf

Beginning in the northern peninsula of Sulawesi, we explore hill and lowland forests where kingfishers, hornbills, fruit doves, and odd starlings fill an already extraordinary species mix.

In the Mara and Rift Valley, brief afternoon showers may sweep across the plains, freshening the air and intensifying colors without interrupting the day. Overcast mornings or scattered cloud often make for excellent photographic light.\n\nIn the Aberdares, mist or light drizzle is possible in the forest belt, adding atmosphere and encouraging bird activity.

Grass levels are generally manageable, making both mammals and birds easier to see. Many resident birds are in full plumage, and raptors make the most of the seasonal bounty.\n\nAt the lakes, water levels and food availability can create striking gatherings of flamingos and other waterbirds. In the highlands, cooler temperatures and stable weather make forest birding comfortable, while Samburu’s dry landscapes highlight the contrast between riverine oases and surrounding semi desert. It is a time when Kenya’s full ecological richness feels immediately accessible.",[22449,26273],"MARA, RIFT & SAMBURU","Much of the tour unfolds at moderate elevations, giving Kenya’s famous “cool highland” climate.

Mornings can be crisp, especially in the Aberdare Range or on early starts in the Mara, so light layers are useful.\n\nAfternoons around the Rift Valley lakes feel warm but rarely oppressive, helped by breezes off the water. Samburu and Baringo are typically hotter and drier, producing classic sunlit African scenes.

Farther north, vast stretches of young jack pine in Huron-Manistee National Forest provide the essential breeding habitat for Kirtland’s Warbler, your prime target. Nearby boardwalks through boreal forest and the shores of Tawas Point on Lake Huron add Ruffed Grouse, Barred Owl, Canada Warbler, Northern Waterthrush, and migrant shorebirds to an already exceptional Midwest birding experience.","May often brings a mix of clear, bright days and passing showers. Light rain or drizzle is certainly possible, especially near the lakes where weather systems can shift quickly.

Fresh spring foliage frames the boardwalk at Magee, forest wildflowers bloom along the Cuyahoga, and song carries through jack pine stands and hardwood ridges.

Along the Fly River and around Tabubil, drizzle and mist are common, feeding torrents and waterfalls that echo through the valleys.

With flexible scheduling based on weather, every day promises fresh movement and discovery.",[],"https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1Wo58rvF33EF0MmuhRNOf4WCDJ-OZ3tY&ehbc=2E312F",[46347,46358,46367,46375,46383,46394],{"_uid":46348,"component":5628,"image":46349,"name":37657},"75821cfa-ccb2-40fa-bd08-c99313aa4f08",[46350],{"databaseId":37647,"description":48,"files":46351,"id":37655,"name":37656},{"mini":46352,"thumbnail":46354,"webImage":46356},{"fileSize":48,"height":120,"url":46353,"width":120},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/510572a4daea91af/mini-Summer_Tanager_BZimmer_700pxw_large",{"fileSize":48,"height":12208,"url":46355,"width":127},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/510572a4daea91af/thul-Summer_Tanager_BZimmer_700pxw_large",{"fileSize":48,"height":379,"url":46357,"width":123},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/510572a4daea91af/webimage-Summer_Tanager_BZimmer_700pxw_large",{"_uid":46359,"component":5628,"image":46360,"name":46366},"57998e0c-9ae0-4d3f-a369-fe6a678fffc0",[46361],{"databaseId":34564,"description":48,"files":46362,"id":34572,"name":34573},{"mini":46363,"thumbnail":46364,"webImage":46365},{"fileSize":48,"height":120,"url":34567,"width":120},{"fileSize":48,"height":7612,"url":34569,"width":127},{"fileSize":48,"height":14340,"url":34571,"width":123},"Golden-winged Warbler",{"_uid":46368,"component":5628,"image":46369,"name":45205},"298858f2-3996-40ab-849f-42f5739707f4",[46370],{"databaseId":24314,"description":48,"files":46371,"id":24322,"name":24323},{"mini":46372,"thumbnail":46373,"webImage":46374},{"fileSize":48,"height":120,"url":45200,"width":120},{"fileSize":48,"height":128,"url":45202,"width":127},{"fileSize":48,"height":124,"url":45204,"width":123},{"_uid":46376,"component":5628,"image":46377,"name":24399},"3c71dcb5-4e49-4ffc-bc28-2efe9be29efb",[46378],{"databaseId":36667,"description":48,"files":46379,"id":36676,"name":36677},{"mini":46380,"thumbnail":46381,"webImage":46382},{"fileSize":48,"height":120,"url":36670,"width":120},{"fileSize":48,"height":16110,"url":36672,"width":127},{"fileSize":48,"height":36674,"url":36675,"width":123},{"_uid":46384,"component":5628,"image":46385,"name":24595},"bea26f8d-a640-4f59-a653-c8e85cf93e45",[46386],{"databaseId":24584,"description":48,"files":46387,"id":24593,"name":24594},{"mini":46388,"thumbnail":46390,"webImage":46392},{"fileSize":48,"height":120,"url":46389,"width":120},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/3af371ce1dbe6253/mini-Red-cockaded-Woodpecker_Bruhnke_large",{"fileSize":48,"height":127,"url":46391,"width":20669},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/3af371ce1dbe6253/thul-Red-cockaded-Woodpecker_Bruhnke_large",{"fileSize":48,"height":124,"url":46393,"width":24592},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/3af371ce1dbe6253/webimage-Red-cockaded-Woodpecker_Bruhnke_large",{"_uid":46395,"component":5628,"image":46396,"name":46410},"6c182ade-1879-4aa0-bc11-65a38c5f6c71",[46397],{"databaseId":46398,"description":48,"files":46399,"id":46408,"name":46409},"7AD8156E-73FC-405B-A607CBD4264B41D9",{"mini":46400,"thumbnail":46402,"transformBaseUrl":46404,"webImage":46406},{"fileSize":48,"height":120,"url":46401,"width":120},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/7408756892554a9a/mini-IMG_5675.png",{"fileSize":48,"height":382,"url":46403,"width":127},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/7408756892554a9a/thul-IMG_5675.png",{"fileSize":48,"height":48,"url":46405,"width":48},"https://vent.bynder.com/transform/7ad8156e-73fc-405b-a607-cbd4264b41d9/IMG_5675",{"fileSize":48,"height":379,"url":46407,"width":123},"https://vent.bynder.com/m/7408756892554a9a/webimage-IMG_5675.png","KEFzc2V0X2lkIDdBRDgxNTZFLTczRkMtNDA1Qi1BNjA3Q0JENDI2NEI0MUQ5KQ==","IMG_5675","Indigo Bunting",[17410],[],{"content":46414,"type":42},[46415,46420,46425,46430],{"attrs":46416,"content":46417,"type":54},{"textAlign":48},[46418],{"text":46419,"type":52},"Spring migration along Alabama’s Gulf Coast is a spectacle defined by movement, timing, and the elemental challenge of crossing the Gulf of Mexico.

Spain in winter is a journey through history and habitat—where soaring raptors share the skies with the echoes of flamenco and the walls of Moorish palaces. From Seville’s ornate Alcázar and the vast marshes of Doñana National Park to the rugged cliffs of Cádiz and the storied Rock of Gibraltar, this tour blends superb birding with rich cultural immersion.

Throughout the tour, excellent accommodations, delicious cuisine, and warm hospitality complement the island’s exceptional birding and varied natural history.","Sri Lanka experiences complex rainfall patterns due to its position between multiple monsoonal systems. Wet-zone forests, such as Sinharaja, receive frequent moisture year-round, often in the form of short showers or mist, even during drier periods. Dry-zone regions like Wilpattu receive significantly less precipitation and are typically dry outside the monsoon. Coastal areas and highlands may encounter brief, localized rain, but prolonged storms are uncommon during the traditional dry season.","P0AAGN","Most tours take place during Sri Lanka’s dry season, when conditions are generally clear, wildlife viewing is excellent, and bird activity remains high across all elevations. Vegetation in the highlands is lush, lowland wetlands attract winter migrants, and forest trails are most accessible. The season coincides with pleasant travel weather, offering a comfortable mix of warm lowlands and cool mountain air—ideal for exploring the island’s rich natural and cultural heritage.",[13771,13770],"AN ISLAND OF ENDLESS WONDER","Temperatures vary with elevation. Lowland regions—including coastal zones, dry forests, and rainforest foothills—typically reach daytime highs in the mid-80s to low-90s °F, with warm and humid nights.

Great opportunity to study birds of prey. The Amazon region is a realm of superlatives. The centerpiece of this vast area is the Amazon itself, the largest river in the world; indeed, many of its tributaries equal or exceed many of the world’s other great rivers. This region boasts the highest diversity of birds and plants anywhere. The very word “Amazon” evokes images of broad, sinuous rivers, tree-lined banks, strange animals, bright butterflies, and glorious sunsets. Macaws and parrots fly overhead as ponderous Horned Screamers lift off from the stream banks. The Amazon’s exotic wildlife includes sloths, fresh-water dolphins, snail-eating lizards, half a dozen species of monkeys, and a lavish profusion of flowering and fruiting plants.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>This special trip, arranged exclusively for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Chairman’s Council, is designed to experience every aspect of the Amazonian rainforest and river without sacrificing comfort. Your hosts are Ian Owens and Mary Guthrie. Guiding our activities will be David Ascanio, Doris Valencia, and Alejandro Nagy, master birders and naturalists from Texas-based Victor Emanuel Nature Tours, a respected organization with a long history of collaboration with the Lab.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>We offer this excursion to the Amazon for those who want a full Amazonian River experience without sacrificing comfort. The offers visitors the utmost in comfort, security, and safety while still permitting us to visit remote and relatively unspoiled regions in Amazonia. The ship’s spacious cabins are individually climate-controlled, air-conditioned, and include private tiled bathrooms and hot-water showers. Visitors can also be assured of having waterproof ponchos, walking sticks, and extra thick boat cushions as needed for small boat excursions.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>The ship features excellent food and an open-air upper deck for great wildlife viewing. The list of amenities offered by the ship and its attendant crew is impressive. Additionally, stable, flat-bottomed skiffs powered by exceptionally quiet engines permit intimate exploration of small streams and lakes with ease and comfort, and a minimum of noise intrusion.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>The mobility of our ship and its excursion boats will allow us to explore different habitats and streams each morning and afternoon and provide exceptional opportunities to see birds and wildlife. Some birds will be common, widespread Amazonian species such as the Black-collared Hawk, Black-fronted Nunbird, Oriole Blackbird, Yellow-rumped Cacique, and Russet-backed Oropendola. Others will be more local species such as Hoatzin, Festive Parrot, and perhaps river island and river edge specialties such as Red-and-white Spinetail and Black-and-white Antbird. During the course of our trip, we will explore small wooded streams, lakes, seasonally flooded forest, and flooded river islands. Toward the latter part of the trip, we’ll have an opportunity to visit a native village, formed by a mix of former Amerindians with Spanish and Portuguese adventurers. Here we also may have a chance to see a few species not easily seen from our skiffs, or perhaps even enjoy colorful groups of tanagers and honeycreepers at a fruiting tree.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>A brilliant blue Plum-throated Cotinga perched in a treetop, a pair of Blue-and-yellow Macaws winging overhead, a swirling group of White-winged Parakeets along the river, or a White-eared Jacamar in the morning sun—it is hard to predict which of these or many other experiences will delight you the most. We’ll also fill some spare shipboard time with discussions and explanations of Amazonian natural history, as well as recaps in some of the evenings.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Most visitors are pleasantly surprised at how comfortable travel can be in the heart of Amazonia. The airy, breezy ship and air-conditioned cabins mitigate the effects of even the hottest days, and visitors soon discover that insects and mosquitoes, far from being the torment they are imagined, are little problem.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>For a more comprehensive understanding of the birdlife and culture of Peru, we are offering an optional extension to northern Peru, visiting an area rich in birdlife and pre-Columbian history covering the Moche and Chimu cultures: The Birds of the Northern Kingdoms of Peru.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>While Cornell is pleased to facilitate travel opportunities for its alumni and friends with tour operators that specialize in high-quality educational travel, please be aware that Cornell does not conduct, manage, or operate these travel experiences, or act as an agent for travelers interested in tours.
