Leica Birding Team: Alvaro Jaramillo
J. Drew Lanham here, and I’d like to introduce my fellow Leica Birding Team member Alvaro Jaramillo! Alvaro is a Senior Biologist at the San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory and Owner/Guide at Alvaro’s Adventures. Currently a resident of Half Moon Bay, California, Alvaro seems ever on the move like so many of the birds he cherishes. After several roundabouts of social media and email-tag, Alvaro and I finally agreed to catch up virtually. I posed a number of questions and you might be surprised by some of his answers! Read on to find out.
In 2013 you followed the trials and tribulations of a pair of Leica Trinovid 8x42 binoculars passed from hand to hand across the Americas on a “big year” quest to see as many bird species as possible!
In 2014 we have a sleek 7x42 Ultravid HD binocular traveling the globe and soaking in many spectacular sights! Follow along with us vicariously here.
