This program will highlight Dave Tripp’s visits to Argentina in 2022 and 2025, specifically the Patagonia region. His Argentina bird list tops 300 species, 235 of which he has photographed and entered into eBird. Dave will entertain us with stories and adventures as well as his spectacular photos of the Patagonia avifauna. Dave has been birding since he was 12, when he went on an LHAS bird walk with his sixth-grade teacher at White Memorial in Litchfield. He has been hooked on birding ever since! He currently serves as the treasurer of LHAS and compiles two Christmas Bird Counts and a summer count. He also is a board member of the Connecticut Ornithological Association, for which he has spent 25 years on the Avian Records of Connecticut Committee and founded the Connecticut Big Day team — the Raven Lunatics, who hold the state record of 192 species in a 24-hour period. He has traveled worldwide and leads trips to Central and South America, especially Brazil, as a hobby.
