Foothills Audubon Club invites you to join us at 6 pm this evening, to hear professional bird and nature Guide Edwin Perez talk about conservation successes and remaining challenges in his country of Ecuador. We'll learn about the national parks and protected
areas and enjoy pictures of seldom-seen and newly discovered birds, and talk about what else is happening with conservation in a country that birders love to visit. Even if you've already traveled extensively in Ecuador, there is certain to be new material
here.
Edwin Perez grew up on a farm in the temperate forest that used to cover much of the western slope of the Andes but is steadily disappearing. He began guiding professionally over 15 years ago. He has taken the time to study extensively to understand the birds,
plants, animals and regional peoples for the benefit of clients and also because he cares deeply about his country.
