We want to get you the best of Washington birds throughout—Harlequin Ducks and deep-diving alcids to Black Swifts and Sooty Grouse.

Our REVIEWS

Liam was excellent. We saw all my target birds. Extremely knowledgeable and personable. I have no reservations in highly recommending him. I was very impressed with the overall experience.
Liam Hutcheson did such a great job on our trip! I took four first timers with him and they are still talking about their experience. He was professional , patient and kind. He was very knowledgeable. Don’t hesitate to schedule with him .
Liam Hutcheson is an outstanding birder with a sharp eye and really good ear, and his ability to find good and tricky birds always impresses me. He's exactly the kind of person you want as a bird guide -- someone who knows where to find everything in Washington, and someone who takes it as a personal challenge to get you on your target species. More mature (and a much better conversationalist) than the average teenager, he's good company and you'll be glad you hired him.
Liam H is an excellent bird identifier and bird-spotter. Stoked to see that he’s available to lead tours!
