James Wolstencroft is an English naturalist who has lived many years in Tanzania and now lives in Spain. He guides for Eagle Eye Tours and Wings.

Gunnar and James have been friends on Facebook for year. James reached out asking how COVID was affecting local economies that depend on eco-tourism in different places around the world. He has taken on himself to write up a report from various sources around the world.
The problem was beautifully illustrated by James in the story he made up about the fictitious Glorious Mountain Forest Owl. After their conversations, Gunnar helped James connect with some Peruvian eco-tourism companies to visit Madre de Dios area in SE Peru.

James and Gunnar talk about Bucket List Birding in Tanzania, Spain and Peru.
Show notes and video of some of the stuff we talk about can be found on 7Wondersbirding.com under the Bucket List Birding tab.
