Galapagos cactus evolution!

More fun at #AOS24 birding with great people! Got my lifers Brown-capped Rosy-Finch 💖 and White-tailed Ptarmigan 🤍. Great science, cool people, fun social events, and amazing birding 💥

Great morning of birding in Rocky Mountain NP after #AOS24 with Natalia Ocampo-Peñuela, PhD and Jaime A. Chaves. White-tailed Ptarmigan and Brown-capped Rosy-Finch were highlights. Instead of Lifer Pie, we went for Lifer Thai!

Great honor to be part of this incredible institution. Thanks for the recognition! @SFStateBIO USFQ COCIBA Galapagos Science Center

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Can’t believe this is finally happening. Life-long dream to visit South East Asia, and follow the steps of A.R.Wallace for a few weeks. 🏝️🦜

Something magical in my career and birdwatching adventure: got to see a few species of Birds of Paradise in their habitat. These species have fascinated me for years, so this is a lifetime achievement.

Holding The Malay Archipelago by AR Wallace as I arrive to north Sulawesi at Manado airport. Excited to explore this island better described by Wallace as “one of the most interesting in the world to the philosophical ornithologist”.

Sulawesi endemics: Sulawesi Scops-Owl, Sulawesi Pitta and Sulawesi Dwarf King-Fisher. “[Celebes/Sulawesi] Wonderfully rich in peculiar forms, many of which are singular or beautiful, and are in some cases absolutely unique upon the globe.” -Wallace (The Malay Archipelago 1869)

In Angkor, Cambodia, you never know what you might spot—perhaps two monks in colorful robes sitting under a temple doorway.

New paper on the genomes of mockingbirds from the Galapagos, including the endangered Floreana mockingbird and a newly ensambled genome of the Cristóbal mockingbird. Sebastian Espinoza Link: doi.org/10.1111/mec.17… onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Jorge Anhalzer nos muestra la minería ilegal desde el aire. Operación criminal que ha desembocado en la mayor tragedia ambiental, cultural y social que ha visto el país. Urgente que esto entre en la agenda pública y que los políticos le den la importancia que merece.
