Incredible views of Ocelot from a hide for our Brazil tour group today at SouthWild Pantanal lodge.

A boat trip on Kerkini lake yesterday morning got us up close and personal to a massive abundance and variety of water birds. The boiling water created by a frenzy of thousands of Cormorants and White Pelicans created a sound that could be heard over 2km! Not a great place to be a fish!

30/04/2024

Beautiful Lake Kerkini, nestled at the foothills of the Belles Mountains in Northern Greece, is the destination for one of our groups this week. Hordes of breedings herons, pelicans and Pygmy Cormorants, and a constant soundtrack of Golden Orioles, Turtle Doves, Corn Buntings and Nightingales are the norm here. We’ve seen flocks of Bee-eaters, Red-backed and Lesser Grey Shrikes, Lesser Spotted Eagle and lots more and it’s only our first afternoon!

11/02/2024

Our final Norfolk winter tour of the season ended with a great selection of species this week despite the rain and wind. Full report on our Birding Diary blog https://www.oriolebirding.com/birdingdiary/

This amazing photo of a young Harpy Eagle in flight was taken on our Panama tour this week by participant Alan Harrison. To say they had good views is an understatement! Thanks as ever to our good friends at The Canopy Family, Panama for a superb trip so far. We’ll be back next year with tour details here: https://www.oriolebirding.com/tour/panama-birding-the-isthmus-canopy-tower-lodge-camp/

Lots of fantastic birds on offer on the first few days of our tour to The Gambia.

Our last full day birding in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and we headed to the lowlands for a day at REGUA. It was hot and humid but the birding was superb! Among the highlights was this Long-tailed Potoo, pretending to be a branch!

13/11/2023

Brazil day 6 and some superb Atlantic Forest endemics on offer as we dodged the thunderstorms at Macae de Cima

12/11/2023

Brazil day five and it was into the lowlands for a show-stopping days birding. Over 100 species logged with the highlight being the endemic Three-toed Jacamar.

12/11/2023

Brazil day four and a full day exploring the trails around Itororo Lodge in the Atlantic Forest

10/11/2023

Day three in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest and we headed up to higher elevation at Pica de Caledonia. Some superb endemics including the mega rare Itatiaia Thistletail and Grey-winged Cotinga plus this little lot!

10/11/2023

Day two in Brazils Atlantic Rainforest and some superb birds on offer. It was a great day for foliage-gleaners and woodcreepers, plus we got great views of Sharpbill - a canopy-dwelling bird which is often shown in the fields guides and checklists but which is not often seen and was a first for us. Lots of gaudy tanagers and parakeets too, of course!

08/11/2023

A few highlights from our first day exploring Brazil’s Atlantic Forest with Andy Foster based out of Itororo Lodge. Superb setting with some fantastic birds!

12/10/2023

Excitement for our Shetland tour group when news broke this morning of an American Yellow Warbler at Hoswick. Thankfully we weren’t far away and relocated the bird at the south end of the village where good views were had by all! It’s a bright one!!

Our Story

Welcome, and thank you for visiting Oriole Birding’s page! If you are looking for a birdwatching holiday, either in the UK or abroad, we are sure that we have something for you.

We hope you will agree that our tours offer the complete bird tour package, and we are confident that there is a wildlife holiday here to suit everyone. Whether you are after a short break enjoying winter wildfowl on the Norfolk coast or an exciting birding adventure to a far flung overseas destination, you will find something here. We remain firmly committed to the value for money, small group ethos that has served the company so well over the years, and unlike so many other tour operators, our definition of a small group really does mean that. With Oriole Birding, expect the personal touch and a tour that represents excellent value without compromising on quality.

As well as aiming to deliver a tour which offers you the best chance to see the birds and wildlife that you want to see, we feel it is important to have fun in the process and our tours therefore operate in a relaxed atmosphere. We always aim to use the best accommodation in each area we visit, and we always try to ensure these are well situated with good amenities and wherever possible are en suite. It is the personal touch that has allowed Oriole Birding to blossom in a very competitive industry and it is this friendly and personal service that we think has set us aside from other companies.
