Josh lives in tropical Australia with his partner Shahaf and daughter Aya. Working as a professional bird tour leader since he was 16 and travelling extensively throughout Australasia, Eurasia and Africa, his particular passion is for New Guinea and the Pacific where he guided extensively with Birdquest over the last decade before founding Ornis Birding Expeditions.
Julien started birding when he was 10 and quickly expanded his passion all over the Western Palearctic and ultimately the whole world, where he has been leading tours on five continents for the past five years. When at home in western Switzerland, he lives with his partner Hélène and devotes much of his time counting birds high up in the Alps or looking for vagrants!
Dani is a life-long, highly enthusiastic and experienced birder who started birding at the early age of 5. He lives in Asturias, Northern Spain, and worked as a professional bird tour leader with Birdquest for over 10 years before starting Ornis. His travels have taken him to over 80 countries across the world, with his favourite places being the Neotropics and the oceans.
Daniel was born and raised in Guatemala City, but has since relocated to the beautiful and biodiverse slopes of Toliman Volcano, where he lives amongst many special endemic birds! He worked for Tropical Birding for several years before joining Ornis, and has plenty of experience leading tours across Central and South America.
After working as an ornithologist for several years following his bachelor’s degree, Eduardo cut his teeth guiding for an extended period at the famous Cristalino Lodge and has never looked back! Now he is well-regarded as one of Brazil’s top birders, having seen over 1200 species in the country while leading tours to all corners and amassing an exceptional knowledge of bird calls from the Amazon to the Atlantic Forest!
