    About Leader

    Chris Earley is the University of Guelph Arboretum’s Interpretive Biologist and Education Coordinator and a self-proclaimed ‘nature geek’. He teaches workshops at the Arboretum. Chris has also written a series of very popular bird identification books and children’s nature books too. His latest work is the American Birding Association Field Guide to Birds of Ontario Chris has led many Quest tours, including to the High Arctic, the Galapagos Islands, Sri Lanka and several to eastern and southern Africa. Most recently he joined Quest’s Antarctica with South Georgia departure. His zoological knowledge is impressively broad and virtually encyclopedic, and his enthusiasm for wildlife is contagious!
