Description
After several episodes with guests who are big-time  birding listers, we change pace for this episode featuring a birder whose passion has led him to trekking, birding and supporting the communities of some of the highest elevation communities on earth, in the mountains of Nepal.  When I met David Swain on the ship on my recent Antarctica trip I know he would be really fun to talk with for the podcast.  Learn about Nepal, life in some of the highest elevation villages on earth, about trekking and birding in those areas and more. Enjoy. The Altitude Project David Swain on Facebook Read and see more on the Bird Banter Blog
