Phil was born in June 1965 & is a top Australian birder. Originally from England he has been in Australia on & off for the past 10 years & in Newcastle since November 1999. He has travelled extensively throughout Australia clocking up over 700 species. Phil holds special interests in both Seabirds and Waders. His high level identification expertise stems from working with these birds in Australia and in over 40 countries spanning every continent.
Through their considerable expertise both in Australia and abroad, your guides know habitats intimately. They know exactly where to look and what to look for, ensuring you will have a great time and maximise your experiences in any region.
We can tailor tours around the Newcastle & Sydney areas, anywhere in New South Wales or Australia or indeed anywhere around the world.
The secret to several of our tours is the variety of habitats that we can take you to in a short period of time. We usually try to finish with an hour or two looking for the local night birds where ever we end up.
