For anyone interested in birds, the cloud forests of the Ecuadorian Andes are a destination that you absolutely need to visit. The amount of avian diversity here is staggering, as well over 500 unique species call this place home, and many of them have stories so bizarre that they will totally blow your mind - from birds that eat their relatives to a species that has figured out how to talk to its predators. Today, we are going to share 6 of the craziest bird stories to come out of this region to show you exactly why the cloud forest is so worth protecting, and disprove any notion that these animals are boring!
Our trip to Ecuador was made possible in large part by the generosity, knowledge, and expertise of Emilio @AnimalEncountersEP, he is one of this country's most passionate and driven educators and if you are not already following his work, you should be. This man gets stuff done, and he has a level of connection to this land that is truly incredible. Also, without Jack and Gage @JacksWorldofWildlife, Spencer @MyWildBackyard, and Rex at / mistersceloporus , our time in the cloud forest would have been far less successful, not to mention a whole lot less fun and enriching. All of these guys are amazing wildlife educators and some of the most talented educators we know, so go give their work some love!
