If it were possible to design a perfect biological hot spot, one could hardly do better than create a place like Burma (aka Myanmar).

Located on the Tropic of Cancer, bounded by mountain ranges, rivers and a largely undeveloped coastline, this Texas-sized country contains every Asian habitat except desert.

From the floras and faunas of the Indian lowlands, the Himalayas and Indochina as well as its own isolated pockets of endemism, it is not surprising that Burma contains the greatest diversity of birdlife in Southeast Asia with more than 970 species recorded to date, including four species that occur nowhere else.

In addition to these natural treasures, Burma boasts a rich cultural heritage, which, due to both geographical and political isolation, has survived to the modern era in the form of spectacular works of art and architecture and deeply rooted Buddhist philosophy.

Join us for scenes of the wonders of this previously isolated land.

Location-themed buffet dinner and lecture or lecture only.

Pre-registration required for dinner by 6pm Tuesday, March 25.
