Public transportation users: Meeting location is one mile from Bayside LIRR station; you can either walk, take the Q12 bus, or use car service located at station. Ian Resnick will present "A Tale of Two Tambopata Trips " QCBC member Ian Resnick went to the Peruvian Amazon region in November 2005 as a volunteer on an Earthwatch project studying parrots. He had a great time, and found the area truly amazing. The region, which boasts over 550 species of birds, drew him back again in October 2015. This time it was a true birding trip, rather than one focused on just a few species. The experience was wonderful, and all the more interesting because of the comparison between the two visits.
