Zoom Program: A Birding Cruise around Cape Horn

January 8, 2025 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm EST

Join Becky Suomala on a boat trip from Santiago, Chile around Cape Horn to Buenos Aires, Argentina. In addition to seabirding for albatross and the other pelagic species in southern waters, there were landbird stops in Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay. One of the highlights was a visit to a penguin colony on the Falkland Islands. See some of the great seabirds, landbirds, and even mammals such as guanacos, as well as the beauty of Cape Horn, the Magellanic Strait, and the Beagle Channel.

Bio: Becky Suomala is an avid birder who birds extensively in New Hampshire and takes birding trips to far flung places. She retired from NH Audubon in 2024 after over 36 years as a biologist. She led research on Common Nighthawks in NH and participated in numerous field projects including Common Tern restoration at the Isles of Shoals. She is a songbird bander at the Appledore Island Migration Station in spring and fall and tends her garden in the summer.
