Introduction

Indonesia is not only the largest island archipelago globally but home to a staggering 528 endemic bird species which ranks this country number one in the world on this metric. Bird-Photo-Tours Asia’ 6-day bird photography workshop takes in Bali the most westerly of the Lesser Sunda Islands, offering the chance for close photographic encounters with some fabulous families of birds including Pheasants, Partridges, Pittas, Trogons, Kingfishers, Babblers, Wren Babblers, Flycatchers, Tailorbirds, Shortwings, Bulbuls, Flowerpeckers, Bush Warblers, Thrushes, Mynas, Frogmouths and Owls. In particular, our key objectives will be on enjoying close photographic encounters with a number of Bali's special birds including Bali Myna, Grey-breasted Partridge, Javan Banded Pitta, Green Peafowl, Cerulean and Javan Kingfishers and the Sunda Bush Warbler.

[For those photographers wanting a longer Bird-Photo-Tour to the Greater Sundas, Bird-Photo-Tours Asia also offers a 23-day bird photography workshop called "Indonesia: Western" to the islands of Sumatra, Java and Bali].

Nick

Nick Ludovic Green has been living in Asia for over 15-years and in this time has conducted over 125 bird photography trips across the whole of the Asian continent ranging from Kazakhstan in the west, through India and China to Japan in the east, and from the Kamchatka coastline in the north to as far south as Indonesia. In China alone Nick has photographed to portrait-quality standard over 1,200 of China's bird species taking him to all of China's provinces as well as most of those nations bordering China. These bird photography trips have ranged in length from a few days to many months, including a three-month bird photography expedition to China's Xinjiang Autonomous Region, becoming quite possibly the most travelled foreigner in this region over the past decade. Nick has also conducted a four-month bird photography trek across the Himalayas, ranging from the Indian States of Ladakh and Kashmir in the west, into the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan, then onto the Indian States of West Bengal and Sikkim, ending in Arunachal Pradesh and Assam in the eastern Himalayas. Nick has had his images published across numerous media channels including the BBC and Chinese state-owned media outlets, various bird magazines and journals including the Oriental Bird Club's BirdingASIA. He has his own website on the Birds of China and his book 'Portraits of the Birds of China' is due for publication in 2026. Furthermore, Nick has presented films on photographing birds both in Asia and Europe, has his bird images published across many social media platforms within and outside Asia, and has led a number of bird photography lectures and walks, particularly targeted at children. Consequently, Nick has accumulated significant experience of photographing birds within the Asian continent and this expertise has formed the backdrop to setting up Bird-Photo-Tours Asia, trips designed by bird photographers for bird photographers.
