June 18 – “Birding the Canary Islands and Morocco” –
presented by Ron Hoff
Ron will talk about a 19-day trip he and his wife took to target the endemic birds of the Canary Islands and Morocco. The trip started in the Canary Islands and then they flew a short distance to Agadir, in Morocco, for that portion. This trip was in mid-late February and early March of 2025. All habitats were covered including the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. Also included was the very NW edge of the Sahara Desert.
Dollyann began birding in 1973, and Ron began in 1978. Both are longtime TOS life members. Ron, and his wife Dollyann, have been travelling together to search for birds since 1992. Ron has been photographing birds since 2005, having now photographed over half of the world’s birds. Both of their lifelists are now over 9000. Their love of Nature in general, and birds in particular, remains strong.
