Falkland Islands Birding Adventure, Speaker: Bill Millhouser – Nov 20, 2025

Bill and Fran Millhouser have enjoyed birdwatching since the mid 1970s when they took a Smithsonian course on birds and local birdwatching. Bill is also an avid bird photographer, and their trips overseas have often combined birdwatching and photography. Over the years they have visited Costa Rica (multiple times), Ecuador, Patagonia, Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa. In January 2024 they joined a small group of photographers led by wildlife photographer Nikhil Bahl on a two-week tour of the Falkland Islands, which are located off the southern tip of South America. While the tour focused on the Island’s Penguin species and the majestic Black-browed Albatross, they encountered many species of birds and wildlife including marine mammals. The presentation will provide an overview of the geography and history of the Falklands and provide a window on the Islands’ wildlife.
