A week ago I returned home from a 13 day birding tour in northern Peru. Our
group of four began in the far east of the country in the city of Tarapoto
and traveled west to the city of Chiclayo with many stops along the way. We
saw 328 species including 16 endemics. We experienced a variety of
ecosystems and elevations from about 1,000 feet to 7,400 feet.

I organized this trip and hired Danny Vargas of Manakin Expeditions to be
our guide. He is the owner of a small local birding company that operates
out of Cusco. He and his team did a wonderful job not only of finding us
so many birds but looking after our wellbeing in every way possible. It
was a pleasure to collaborate with Danny and I can highly recommend using
his services. If I return to Peru in the future, he will be my guide.

I would be happy to provide more details to anyone who is interested.
