Hi everyone,
I've booked some travel for a few weeks in NZ with my wife (mid-Feb to mid-March). It's not a "birding trip," per se. But, well, you know what happens. We'll spend around a week and a half on each island with a car. If any of you have been and have specific birding (or hiking, cultural) recommendations, I'm all ears!
Thanks in advance!
Also, I've been doing some blogging for a while now about my birding in Vancouver, Minnesota, and some travel in the past few years. I've aimed to make it informative, fun, and media-rich. I hope it's not too presumptuous to post a link to it here:? I'd love to hear comments/suggestions from this community!

Hi Jim, ? I¡¯m just putting the finishing touches to our new website () which has all of Carol and my trip reports ¨C I¡¯m still adding photos for some of the reports but the one from our trip to New Zealand is finished and maybe worth taking a look at. Sav Saville who owns Wrybill tours is a good friend and I can give you an intro if you need it. ? Hope this helps! ? Derek VARC ? ?
