For those who are unaware: according to the latest IOC World Bird List (v 15.1) this species will no longer be described as 'Asian' or 'African', but simply a Crimson-winged Finch, described by two subspecies: R. s. sanguineus (Asia) and R. s. alienus (Africa).

To the attention of British birders, if you didn't know yet, easyJet begins operating direct flights from London Luton to Tbilisi on April 1st. Only 4 hours of flight separates you from the desired birding in the Caucasus now. Doesn't that sound great?

Check out the spring tours on our website.

How birding tourism can help save thousands of birds of the Chorokhi Delta during migration. A fresh blog and probably the most comprehensive story about this bird paradise near Batumi in Georgia.
Together with Aslan Bolkvadze and Alexander Rukhaia, I was invited to write a guest blog for OSME about the immense hunting pressure threatening migratory birds in the Chorokhi Delta, republic of Georgia.
