This first-and-only of a kind document for Latin America outlines eco-scenic birding trails in different habitats around the country, and we all look forward to their continuing implementation with local partner organizations, local governments and the Ecuadorian Ministries of Tourism and Environment. This strategy shows how rural communities can become active habitat defenders while tangibly benifitting from biodiversity, a true challenge for many birdy areas around the world!

MCF and all of the various actors involved need support from other NGOs, individuals and tour companies to see that this strategy is carried out to its true potential. Bird clubs, Audubon chapters, willing donors and concerned citizens can all be a part of something new, something big!

It´s simple really, Ecuador can and should become "The Epicenter of World Birding"!
