Eugeni Capella is passionate about ornithology and travel, especially journeys that allow the discovery of new territories through birds. Over the years, he has independently organized several trips, learning both from successes and unexpected situations along the way.
In this talk, he will start from the question “How do you prepare for a birdwatching trip?” and share his experience so that it may be useful to other enthusiasts. He will explain the key steps to organizing a successful expedition: from choosing the destination and the most suitable season to researching species, accommodation, transport, and observation sites.
He will also discuss the tools and resources available today, the essential equipment, the importance of planning while maintaining the ability to adapt, and some common mistakes that are best avoided, all illustrated with firsthand examples and anecdotes. Finally, he will reflect on how the way of organizing trips has evolved since the late 20th century.
A proposal designed to help any enthusiast turn the dream of a birdwatching trip into a rewarding and tailor-made experience.
