Dear Hilda,
A brief note to thank you for the great tour Alice, Anna and I did with you in Puerto Rico recently.as
you know, I've been leading and arranging tours for 35+ years now and the tour with you certainly
goes down as one of the more successful and smoothest. Your ability to find the birds in such a
wonderfully nonchalant and confident manner was impressive. I often take people to my well-known,
staked-out sites, but you were taking us to specific bushes and trees and finding the birds! The
arrangements worked very well, hotels were pleasant, transport very comfortable and food good.
Above all, your easy-going and down-to-earth manner and company were much appreciated and
enjoyed by us all.
Very Best wishes - Peter (Peter Roberts, Scotland)
