With options ranging from birds to butterflies and animals to wildflowers, Blue Sky Wildlife is a unique website for ecotourism that gives birdwatchers and wildlife aficionados a different approach to look for wildlife tours and ecotourism vacations. The website now lists 65 reputable, award-winning wildlife tour operators and businesses that provide over 225 distinctive bird viewing and wildlife trips throughout 36 countries. Within the following six months, it is projected that there will be over 100 listed tour companies. This special website allows you to search for a wide range of wildlife and birding vacation experiences while keeping in mind eco-lodges, families, photography, and hiking. Independent birders who would rather go through their own “bucket list” may now use the keyword search field on the top right section of the website to find the ideal tour operator based on the name of the bird species before contacting them directly to make reservations for their upcoming trip. The array of bird watching experiences and tours includes photography classes, a half-day boat cruise off the coast of Kaikoura, New Zealand, where guests can witness magnificent wandering albatrosses, a choice of five-day rainforest adventures in Peru, Colombia, or Jamaica, or a 30-day mega bird watching tour in Uganda. “We felt there was nothing like this for the birding community while seeking to elevate conservation as a selection criteria for birders without compromising on their overall birdwatching experience,” said Chris Larsen of Blue Sky Wildlife, explaining why they were motivated to establish this website. Blue Sky Wildlife has been very careful to strike the ideal mix between ecotourism and other activities. They collaborate with Tim Appleton MBE, who co-founded the British Birdwatching Fair (or Birdfair) 27 years ago. Blue Sky Wildlife is dedicated to conservation and ecotourism that is sustainable. Blue Sky Wildlife is recognized as a champion species for birds that supports the Birdlife International initiative to avoid extinctions. Go to www.blueskywildlife.com to learn more.
