“This has been a fabulous, fascinating, astonishing, interesting, enlightening trip. Your exceptional knowledge and skill in every aspect made for an incredible experience.”

“Thanks Josh, and nicely done [trip report]. I’d have to guess that writing these is not your favorite thing, since for you, it’s a trip you’ve done many times. Having this memoir, however, is really special; a window back in time to one of the most cherished trips I’ll ever make, with people who became lifelong friends. I can’t begin to tell you how often I think about Southern Africa and how much I miss it - all of it - the car rides, the meals, the birds, the animals, our group, the daily “moments,” and the fun of it all.

You really made it all so special, Josh.”

“When signing up for this trip I was leery for a couple of reasons....I must say, your skills as a tour guide and as an excellent birder quelled those quickly. Your amazing knowledge of birds, their behaviors, etc., made the days go by quickly and fascinatingly. Your choice of locations and activities were really wonderful. You and this trip will forever hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for sharing your incredible knowledge with me and for helping me see birds. Your patience and thoughtfulness are greatly appreciated!”

“What a wonderful, memorable trip this has been! Thank you so much for your leadership and expert birding.”

“I can’t even begin to express how much I enjoyed the Cape May birding experience with RedHill.  The birding was great, and I had several lifers on this trip (loved the sparrows, rails and the gannets!!). I also had great looks at old avian friends .  And soooooo many Peregrines...wow.   I loved learning about the Cape May environment, which was unique, but also beautiful, with wonderful views across the salt marshes and the bays..and beaches at sunset!!  This I did not necessarily expect to see. 

I thoroughly enjoyed  not only identifying the birds, but learning about their unique behaviors and their patterns of migration through Cape May.  This is due to your excellent skills and tutelage, along with those of Jason.  The added bonus of seeing and learning about the monarch migration was a welcome surprise.

Everything was so well planned and smooth, from start to finish.  I know that so much goes into the organizing and executing of a trip such as this, and you made it seem easy:  accommodations, birding locations, restaurants, and stops at WaWa!   

I would love to attend another RedHill Birding trip sometime in the future!”
