Join us at Bird-Photo-Tours Asia and explore these rarely-visited but endemic-rich islands that lie to the east of New Guinea. Our Solomon Islands bird photography expedition visits seven of the country\u2019s nine provinces thereby providing a comprehensive coverage of the islands for the adventurous bird photographer who longs to capture on film this country\u2019s rich birdlife. The Solomon Islands combines coastal landscapes with tourist-free, easy-going island life alongside an abundance of exotic endemic birds. The nation is an archipelago of volcanic islands, still largely cloaked in luxuriant rainforest, sweeping down to golden sand beaches and fringing coral reefs. The environment remains remarkably pristine with most Solomon Islanders pursuing a traditional life of fishing on the reefs and agriculture in the forests and its population remains overwhelmingly friendly towards visitors. The Solomons form a chain of islands stretching out beyond New Guinea into the deeper Pacific and the island archipelago is close enough to retain a reasonably high bird diversity yet isolated and fragmented enough to enable a high degree of bird endemism. These endemics will form the focus for this bird photography workshop where for a four-week period we will focus on capturing portraits of Kingfishers, White-eyes, Fantails, Myzomelas, Boobooks, Starlings, Fruit Doves, Imperial Pigeons, Megapodes as well as the most easterly Pitta on our planet, the Black-faced Pitta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
