Note: "Wherever he went, he would be accompanied by local birders that he’d met 
on previous trips or contacted online.” … "Birding works on an honour system. 
“There’s really no reason to cheat; it’s just lying to yourself,” Strycker 
says. Nevertheless, for the avoidance of doubt, each of his 2015 sightings was 
witnessed by at least one other person. "

<Ecuador must be a twitcher’s delight - "In Ecuador, Strycker saw 625 new 
species in just 12 days.”>
