The unique bird life of East-Indonesia
The islands east of the Wallace Line are a highlight for ornithologistsSince the pioneering work on the origin of species by Alfred Russel Wallace, the islands situated between Borneo and Papua in the centre of the Indo-Pacific region have been a source of constant interest to naturalists. This group of islands east of the Wallace Line is geographically isolated from continental land masses and lies at the interface between Asian and Australian flora and fauna, offering a unique array of animal and plant life to be explored. Due to its high number of endemic species, it is truly one of the world’s most biodiverse regions.
On our individually arranged ornithological trips, which inspire bird lovers and ornithologists, there is an almost unbelievable variety of unknown species to discover.
