New Caledonia Bird Guides?

Hi ?Everyone, I’m heading to New Caledonia and I was wondering if anyone here has any recommendations for a local bird guide there? I’ll be spending time in Noumea, Isle de Pins, and maybe Ouvea. Thanks for any help! Dan

    Hi Daniel, I would highly recommend the services of the rangers at Parc Riviere Bleue. I went with them about 5 years ago and can only sing their praises. The cost was about 11000 francs for about 5 hrs. From memory their names were Joel and Jean-Pierre. Doughty put out a field guide on Birds of New Cal, Vanuatu and the Solomons which was quite useful. Let me know if you cannot get a copy. Regards John.

    Hi Dan, you could try the SCO in downtown Noumea, I’m sure they’ll be able to put you onto a guide: http://www.birdlife.org/pacific/partners/new-caledonia-france-soci%C3%A9t%C3%A9-cal%C3%A9donienne-d%E2%80%99ornithologie-sco cheers, James ________________________________________ Sent: Friday, 13 March 2015 1:35 PM Sorry, everyone, I have a book-guide, I’m looking for a human-guide in New Caledonia that someone can recommend.
