Tracks Birding & Photography Tours specialise in finding rare and endemic birds around the Top End of the Northern Territory.
I've been finding and photographing birds in the Northern Territory for over 8 years and have extensive knowledge of Darwin and Surrounds including some amazing spots, where without local knowledge, you wouldn't see.
I enjoy taking guests out to get that amazing photo and finding that target bird they would never have been able to find on their own.
