Researchers from Princeton University and the University of the South (both in the U.S.) studied how Plain-tailed Wrens and Rufous Antpittas in Ecuador reacted to audio playback of their songs versus playback of general background noise. They may experience undue stress and/or needlessly expend energy.

Currently endemic to a single valley system in the Andes of Ecuador, this species escaped detection from researchers for thirty years until the rediscovery of a few pairs in November 1998 by Dr. Neils Krabbe. In November 2010, I backpacked for fifty days via the reasonably good bus system in Ecuador.

But first, not thinking of proper research, I made no difference between questions, nor were the mentioned destinations really visited or only dreamed about. Ecuador or Botswana, respectively). 17%: Ecuador, Peru. 17%: Ecuador, Peru. Or the lack of some expected answers. Galapagos or the Okavango Delta). 21%: Costa Rica.

On a recent filming trip with Tropical Birding in Ecuador I had the awesome experience of getting up close and personal with two bizarre manakin species. This bird is a Choco endemic found only in northwest Ecuador and southwest Colombia. Are they for real? Take the Club-winged Manakin for example.

Like all talented travel writers, Dunn is adept at drawing us into his experiences. I would also love to have more documentation of the many books, articles, research points, and stories that Dunn relates, at the very least a list of sources. Is all that material on Selkirk needed? Still, I would really love to see this in some form.

So, beside a lot of birds and the sunny sky, I want the coldest thing to experience year-round to be my beer. While there is a lot left to be done when it comes to research and nature protection in many tropical countries, there are not that many jobs in that line of work, and ecotourism seem to be the industry of choice.

Bird species that require further research. The same can be said about the population in Colombia and Ecuador so this could end up being a future, three-way split. Those Pacific slope birds sound more like the Streak-chested Antpittas from the Canal Zone in Panama south to northwestern Ecuador.
