Tour Guide – Ros Peric

Ros Peric is an Environmental Science student with a passion for wildlife, conservation, education and photography.
After growing up throughout Australia and the South Pacific, she settled in Cairns 6 years ago, rekindling her love for the reef while working as a guide on a dive boat before returning to university, initially to study Marine Biology.
Photography has played a large part in Ros’s life from a young age, particularly 35mm film. Her favourite camera is a 1984 Nikonos V which combines her love for analogue with underwater photography and scuba diving.
Through practicing photography she became particularly enamoured with insects and regularly attends university group spotlighting and bug hunting nights throughout the Cairns region.
When not working or studying, Ros also rescues and rehabilitates native wildlife, specialising in bats and hopes to complete her undergraduate studies before moving into an honours thesis on habitat selection of the endemic Spectacled Flying-fox, a highly endangered species found only in the Wet Tropics.

Bridgette’s Endorsement!
Ros has joined me on a number of Let’s Go Buggin Morning & Night Walks as well as attending the Inaugural Australian Macro Photography Conference. Ros is friendly and her passion for nature is abundantly clear. Her general knowledge of the local species is admirable and I feel absolutely confident in her abilities to lead a fantastic Let’s Go Buggin Tour for you.
Ros also has her own Olympus OM SYSTEM setup the same as the Camera Hire Option 2, as well as a range of Nikon camera experience. She is able to assist with getting some amazing shots while you are on tour.
