Background, Mission and General Information
Anous© was founded on an epic birding trip to Florida in March 2008 amidst several hundred Brown Noddies (Anous stolidus). In ancient greek Anous means “stupid, mindless, or foolish” reflecting the demeanor of noddies when first discovered and approached by sailors. We strive to honour the true meaning of Anous on every trip we take.
