Pieter is a 30 year-old (as of 05-01-2013) biology teacher who has been enjoying birds from at least the age of 6. It was then that his teacher wrote in his testimonial that "Pieter is a nice kid, but he should stop staring at the birds outside during class". And it only got worse from the age of 10, when he inherited a few bird books from his grandfather and got his first binoculars from his dad. Pieter has had the fortune to visit many European countries starting when he was 16, and now he has set his eyes beyond the European borders. After photography he decided to buy a camcorder, partly because of the IBC-website. He now has material from Mexico, Belize & Guatemala, Peninsular Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India and The Gambia, Sulawesi and Halmahera (Indonesia), Suriname, Tanzania, as well as a few vagrants for the Netherlands. From February untill July 2011 he resided in Paramaribo in Suriname, where he taught biology to the local youth. He tried to explore the local wildlife when he could! His next destination will be the USA, where he will visit the states of Nevada/Arizona/Utah/Colorado/Wyoming. Additionally, he will be a tour guide for a birding tour to Suriname in the second half of 2013. His partner in crime during many travels is Frank Derriks, who posted a number of photographs on this site.IBC Personal statistics:
