Ross and Melissa Gallardy return to BCDC to share about their 2023 trip to Australia, where they covered every corner of the continent looking for the country’s rarest and most difficult-to-find species. From Scarlet-chested Parrots to White-throated Grasswrens, the Gallardys found more than 580 species of birds. They will discuss how they planned for such a trip and how they accomplished it with their 8-month-old, Roger, in tow!
Ross and Melissa Gallardy are residents of Chester County, but spend their free time traveling the world in search of birds. They run a blog called Budgetbirders.com (Welcome to BudgetBirders.com! – BUDGET BIRDERS), where they chronicle their adventures, with the most recent ones including Roger!
