On Monday, I'm giving an illustrated talk for the Eastern Long Island Audubon Society (ELIAS) at the Quogue Refuge (7:15 pm) on "Birding Manu" -- mainly about birding in the huge Peruvian park which extends from the top of the Andes near Cuzco down into the Amazon rain forest. After a day on the Peruvian coast, the trip follows a dirt road that winds down the mountains from the arid upper slopes through dense cloud and rain forest and eventually ends at the Madre de Dios -- the Mother of God River! From here on, transportation is by boat or on foot with stops at the Cock of the Rock, Amazonia and Manu Wildlife Lodges. Open to the public!
