Our Epic Cape Horn Cruise has reached Punta Arenas and we’ve seen an awesome variety of seabirds so far. Best of all was a Grey Petrel, but more on that later…

What better way to start our Epic Cape Horn Cruise than with a superb Diademed Sandpiper-Plover!

In partnership with Oman Birding we are pleased to offer a ground-breaking new tour searching for rare seabirds in Oman from 28th July - 6th August 2025. Starting in Masirah Island for Lesser Noddy & Saunders's Tern, we will then transfer to Mirbat on the southern coast spending our time either seawatching from a headland or taking pelagics out into the Arabian Sea. There should be 1000's of birds passing the coast and as well as the usual Persian Shearwater & Jouanin's Petrel, this will be the prime time to find something much rarer. Possibilities include Swinhoe's Storm-Petrel, Matsudaira's Storm-Petrel, White-faced Storm-Petrel (3 records), Black-bellied Storm-Petrel (4 records), Wedge-tailed Shearwater, Streaked Shearwater (3 records), Sooty Tern, Brown (3 records) & South Polar Skuas (5 records) , Long-tailed Jaeger (8 records) and who knows what else is possible? There's even been Tahiti Petrel recorded twice! The chances of increasing our knowledge of seabirds here is huge and the fact that many of the above-named species could well be unrecorded due to the lack of observer coverage is a tempting proposition to the avid seawatcher!

For the avid Western Palearctic lister, Kuwait is a mouth-watering, list building mega country, offering numerous special birds unique to this country or are extremely hard to find elsewhere. It's a relatively small country, so we stay in one hotel for the 8 nights, making day trips to all the best birding hotspots. High on our want list will be species such as Socotra Cormorant, Crab Plover, Red-wattled Lapwing, White-tailed Lapwing, Tibetan Sandplover, White-cheeked & Great Crested Terns, Oriental Honey Buzzard, Basra Reed Warbler, Asian Desert Warbler, White-eared Bulbul, Bank Myna, Afghan Babbler, Black-crowned Sparrow-Lark, Indian Silverbill and Ruppell's Weaver. As it's peak migration time the list of possibilities is seemingly endless and we have chances of numerous shorebirds inc Black-winged Pratincole, Caspian Plover, Blue-cheeked Bee-eater, Pied Wheatear, Isabelline & Masked Shrike, White-throated Robin, Siberian Stonechat, Rufous-tailed Scrub-Robin, Semicollared Flycatcher, Marsh, Menetries's, Eastern Olivaceous & Upcher's Warblers, Hume's Whitethroat, Eastern Cinereous Bunting, Pale Rockfinch, and so much more.

So let's go birding WP style!

What an amazing journey through the mountains of southern Tanzania! We began in the South Pare Mountains with its endemic white-eye, followed by a very comfortable stay in the West Usambara Mountains. Here we saw Usambara Double-collared Sunbird, Usambara Weaver, Red-capped Forest Warbler, Fulleborn's Boubou, Usambara Akalat, Spot-throat, Usambara Thrush, Olive Woodpecker, Mountain Tiny Greenbul & much more! We then headed to the East Usambaras, pausing to tick Coastal Cisticola along the way. We birded Amani Forest from the comfort of the Park HQ, seeing Purple-banded, Uluguru Violet-backed and Banded Green Sunbirds, Mombasa & Little Spotted Woodpeckers, Sharpe's Akalat, Pale Batis, Red-tailed Ant-thrush, Usambara Hyliota, Little Yellow Flycatcher & Chestnut-fronted Helmetshrike. We nailed Bohm's Bee-eater shortly after leaving here on the journey to our next destination. And next up was the Uluguru Mountains and 3 nights camping and a couple of tough hikes, but it was well worth the effort to see Uluguru Bushshrike, Livingstone's Turaco, Dark Batis, White-winged & Chapin's Apalis and Loveridge's Sunbird. On the other side of the mountain we were rewarded with Uluguru Mountain Greenbul, Loveridge's Sunbird, Mrs Moreau's Warbler & Orange Ground-Thrush. A morning in the miombo forest near Mikumi National Park gave us Peter's Twinspots, Arnot's Chat, Pale-billed Hornbill, Stierling's Wren-Warbler, Miombo Starling, Livingstone's Flycatcher, Reichenow's Woodpecker, Racket-tailed Roller and Hofmann's Sunbird. Two nights at Hondo Hondo Tented Camp at the base of the Udzungwa Mountains was notable for Pel's Fishing Owl, Kretschmer's Longbill & Lesser Seedcracker, and we also visited the Kilombero floodplain for the recently described Kilombero & White-tailed Cisticola and Kilombero Weaver - all of which we saw incredibly well. A long drive towards the Ukaguru Mountains followed, enlivened by a quick visit into Mikumi NP for Southern Ground Hornbill, and we bumped into 3 adult Lionesses with 7 small cubs at a kill. The Ukagurus were kind to us and we found Yellow-throated Greenbul, Moreau's Sunbird, Rubeho Warbler, Rubeho Akalat and an Olive-flanked Ground-Robin. And that's it for now, as our group are on the way to Pemba for a final few Tanzanian endemics......

Amazing Japan…. #zootherabirding #Japan #birdingtours #birding #birds

This Siberian Rubythroat had set up territory right next to our camp at Terelj National Park #mongolia. #birdingtours #birding #zootherabirding #Mongolia

Altai Snowcock showed quite well during our current #Mongolia tour.

Our group in Turkey really enjoyed this Blue-cheeked Bee-eater colony today. There were over 150 birds present and the sight & sound of this was a truly memorable experience. #zootherabirding #birdingtours #birds #birding #Turkey
