Top woman Birder.
Recently, I had the privilege of guiding two esteemed birders, Ronald Dale Hoff and Dollyann Myers, on an exceptional birding expedition. Their expertise and passion for birdwatching are truly remarkable, with Dollyann likely being the first woman to have observed over 9,000 species worldwide.
Our primary objective was to locate and observe several elusive species of antpittas, and we successfully encountered ten different species, significantly enhancing their life lists.
The journey was an extraordinary success, and we concluded it with a delightful farewell lunch in the field, following our sightings of the Urubamba antpitta and the Diademed Tapaculo.

This hummingbird possesses a distinctive physical appearance, characterized by its unique tail structure. It has four tail feathers, with two of them being pointed and the remaining two significantly longer. The latter two feathers exhibit a racket-like shape, giving the impression that the bird is being pursued by two other birds. In reality, these elongated feathers with racket-shaped tips are a natural part of the hummingbird's anatomy.

This woodpecker is one of the most wanted and simultaneously challenging to observe. It typically inhabits dense patches dominated by bamboo.
