About The Gloster Birder

I have birded all over Europe, in the U.S.A. and Canada, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Costa Rica, Belize, Madeira, Mexico, Grand Cayman, Dominican Republic, The Gambia, the Canary Islands, Cape Verde, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana, Tanzania, Trinidad & Tobago, Turkey and most recently Thailand.
