Good Morning Adam,
I was delighted to hear that there is activity going on in Guatemala.
Three years ago, I had an opportunity to talk with Jose Cruz in
Guatemala about making a special CD of Guatemalan bird sounds to be sold
through the internet to the international community to raise funds for
Guatemala. We had arranged two working sound recordists' teams to make
recordings. Unfortunately, we never heard back from Mr. Cruz and the
project never was started. There is still the same interest in
completing this project if there was suitable financing.
If you believe that there is interest in doing this kind of project, I
would appreciate hearing from you.

Subject: [Nature Recordists] Birding Center in Guatemala
"There are few places like Guatemala that pack such a rich diversity of
birding habitats and species into such a small area."
I am passing on this information about the Guatemalan Birding Resource
Center for those who are interested. For those who would like to combine
birding with improving or learning Spanish, I highly recommend the
non-profit Miguel Angel Asturias Spanish School, which is located a five
minute walk from the Resource Center. (My enthusiasm for the Spanish
school
is genuine, but in the interest of disclosure, I do receive a small
income
registering students).

From the GBRC website:
"There are few places like Guatemala that pack such a rich diversity of
birding habitats and species into such a small area. The Guatemalan
Birding
Resource Center was founded precisely to help birdwatchers take full
advantage of the opportunities to explore this country's dizzying
variety
of birdlife and many unique species. Our mission at GBRC is to promote
quality birding in Guatemala, making it as affordable, accessible,
rewarding and fun as possible for both resident and visiting
birdwatchers,
while at the same time advancing environmental education and
conservation
efforts through workshops and donations."
Thanks,
