Madagascar: Special

Visit a new wilderness area where the incomparable Aye-aye is near-guaranteed, then work south towards the Critically Endangered Madagascar Pochard and stunning Red Owl via several other exciting lemurs. We also target the unique Fosa at the best site for this strange carnivore, and we hope to enjoy several species not usually seen on the classic Madagascar routes. These could include Slender-billed Flufftail, Madagascar Flufftail, Madagascar Snipe, and Madagascar Partridge.
