About the Event
In January 2025, Lisa Baile and Peter Paré teamed up with a Canadian bird-watching couple and a Colombian man they met at Fairy Creek protests for a bird-watching trip to Colombia – the country with the most bird species in the world: 1954! They visited diverse habitats from 14,000 feet up in the Andes, to lush coastal tropical forest, and mid elevation coffee lands. They saw an incredible 505 bird species over a five-week period.
This fun and informative session will highlight the diverse avian communities they encountered, along with stories and images of the people and landscapes of this remarkable country.
