About Me

Nick Bray
United Kingdom
I have had the privilege of being a full-time bird tour leader for 25 years and am the Managing Director of Zoothera Global Birding Ltd, a UK based birding holiday company. The company ethos is on seeing all birds and wildlife well and, like most birders, we really like the endemics, rare, scarce, speciality and skulking species A LOT! It is my hope that you find these blog posts of interest and you can see what species are being seen and also get a flavour of what happens on a ZOOTHERA tour. All comments on this blog are my own and often give a personalised view on events and are not necessarily shared by the company. Just go to www.zootherabirding.com for a full tour programme. I also run the Oman Birding website which gives helpful info for any birders visiting this amazing country (www.oman-birding.com). Happy birding!
