Biggest Twitch Supporters

The Biggest Twitch is going to be very tough. We'll be visiting every type of habitat on earth and will experience all the extremes of weather that nature can throw at us. However, with good preparation, dedication, the right attitude, and the right support we're sure we can do it. We recognise that the generous support of outside experts will ensure this record-breaking challenge is a success.

Seeing the birds and seeing them well enough to identify them accurately is fundamental to The Biggest Twitch so we will be relying totally on our optical equipment to see us through 2008.

Country Innovation

Country Innovation has kindly provided us with some excellent outdoor clothing to help us cope with any of the elements we are likely to face on our expedition around the globe. They have even used us as models in their latest fantastic catalogue which includes the best birding clothing you could possibly wish for, from socks and fleeces to all-weather jackets and waistcoats. Country Innovation also supplies the RSPB and WWT.

Like Swarovski Optik, Country Innovation and The Biggest Twitch will be at the British Birdwatching Fair at Rutland Water in August 2008 – we look forward to seeing you there!

Blah d Blah

This website, www.thebiggesttwitch.com has been designed and built by Blah d Blah, an outstanding strategic design, print and web agency based in Conwy, North Wales. With ten year’s experience in the market, they were not at all fazed by the prospect of turning the request of two low-tech birdwatchers into a fullyfledged birding website. Blah d Blah is providing the vital link between The Biggest Twitch and the outside world – thanks guys!

Swarovski Optik

Swarovski Optik has ensured that we have the best chance of bagging our birds by generously providing us with binoculars and telescopes for the trip, and with their unique camera adapter, we aim to digiscope as many as possible of the birds we see. Click on the link [link to blog here] to our latest blog to see the results for yourselves.

We would also like to thank in advance the amazing local guides that we'll be birding with in some countries around the world. These local experts will be helping us reach our birding target by being in the right place at the right time to see some of the more elusive birds so, no pressure guys! You can read more about them in our blog 'or follow the full story in the book of The Biggest Twitch to be published in 2009.

And of course, there's the essential Home Team too, making sure everything is running smoothly behind the scenes. You know who you are and we thank you.
