Hi, Here in Europe we have some people running "Bird Travel Information Services", i.e., they collect trip reports from birders who have travelled abroad, and they distribute these reports on a request basis to other birders. The costs are low (generally photocopying, postage and small handling fee). The number of countries covered is incredible. The quality of the reports generally varies. My question is whether such a service exists in North America, as I suspect that there may have been more North American birders who have visited Latin America than Europeans. (For my next trip to Bolivia I have only been able to obtain one trip report here in Europe.) I will summarize to you in a few weeks from now, and will include the adresses of the European services then.
