Melanie was a great communicator throughout the process: discussing our interests, arranging to meet, during the tour, and follow-up afterwards. She is expert at song and call identification and bird behavior. Highly recommended! Doug K., Atlanta, GA
Whether you're a beginning birder learning how to use those binoculars for the first time or a seasoned expert looking to get your 1,000th (or more) lifer, Melanie Furr is an amazing guide and educator. Her recent group trip to Montana was meticulously planned with every detail attended to - not only did we see numerous new (to us) species, we learned about the nature and history of the area and ate delicious meals at unique local restaurants every day. Likewise, her local trips here in Georgia are unsurpassed - she has the knowledge of where and when to find specific birds that only comes from decades of birding in this region. I can't say enough about Melanie's professional qualifications and her excellent eyes and ears. Highly recommend both her day trips and her longer expeditions! Courtenay D., Atlanta, GA
