Dawit Berhane: Bird guide, naturalist, for those interested in wildflowers and guide for hiking, trekking, etc.

"I am Eritrea's most experienced, all-round naturalist with a love for all animals and plants in Eritrea. I am an experienced guide, having worked both for international scientific and tourist projects. Birdwatching is good all year round, although perhaps best in spring and autumn when migration is in full swing. Wildflowers can be observed for 8 months from early August until December in the highlands and from January until mid-April at lower elevations e.g. at Semenawi Bahri and in coastal areas including islands."
