My mom and I had a great time. She still talks about the day you toured around with us and we think of you as a “birding god.” If I know of friends heading to Bocas, I will definitely send them your direction. Kimberly Karish, Harvard University
I have been in the waters of Panama for two years with my husband, Robert, aboard our sailboat. We have explored much of your lovely country and enjoyed every minute, but my trip with you up the Teribe (River) will be my most treasured experience. Beny, your knowledge of the many species of birds, flora and fauna and your country’s history is truly impressive. I learned so much and had so much fun while doing so! Along with your insights and local information I also enjoyed your company immensely.
Judy Glassman, S/V Amazing Grace
