The GOS offers several big trips each year from January through August, plus a few others occasionally.
 
In January 2008, we take the Whirlwind Rio Grande Valley Trip, to get most of the tropical species which occur in the Brownsville area. This trip is great both for birds as well as photography, and is a big favorite.
 
From late January through the end of February, Jim runs three separate trips through Costa Rica, all with different birds and locations.
 
March through May, birding is fabulous on the Upper Texas Coast, and Jim stays put, offering local trips and hosting visitors from out of town.
 
June 3-17, 2008 is the Alaskan Trip, a great two weeks that spans this wonderful state. This is the trip of a lifetime!
 
A terrific trip in late August to the cool mountains of Southeast Arizona unveils a huge variety of tropical land birds that are normally seen only in Mexico. Over a dozen hummers and such delights as Red-faced Warbler, Painted Redstart and Elegant Trogon are easily seen in the beautiful wooded canyons.
 
In 2009, two new trips will be added. One will be a week-long trip that includes Yellowstone National Park, the Great Salt Lake, and various wonderful sites in Montana. Fabulous birds, clouds of birds, huge mammals and great scenery will make this trip one to remember!
 
The fall of 2008 Jim will run the great birding trip ever! He will drive the perimeter of South America in a van, running mini birding trips along the way. You may join him anywhere, or make the entire trip with him. It's a trip that should net over 3000 species of birds!
 
Further down the road, Jim will arrange trips to Australia, Africa and other Old World destinations.
 
Stay tuned!
