The last trip to the forest in this assignment for the 2024 nesting season. We are very satisfied to have worked again with the Puerto Rican Parrot Recovery Project and happy to contribute to the survival of this beautiful critically endangered specie of our island. Honored to work with an excellent crew of biologist in the aviary at Rio Abajo State Forest. Thank you all!! The best team!!

🚨¡Excelente Noticia! 🦜
Nos enorguellece conocer que en esta temporada del 2024, ya se han contabilizado 25 nidos activos de nuestra cotorra puertorriqueña. Es la cifra más alta desde que comenzaron a liberarse cotorras en el Bosque de Río Abajo desde el año 2006.
Todo un éxito el trabajo del equipo liderado por la bióloga Tanya Martínez. ¡Felicidades a todos nuestros colegas!

En el bosque de Río Abajo en Utuado, se registra la cifra más alta de estos hogares silvestres y ya comienzan a nacer los polluelos de esa ave endémica.

🌳 Searching the forest canopy for natural cavities.🦜
Puerto Rican parrots find trees with cavities suitable for nesting, they're secondary cavity nesters, nesting in tree trunk cavities, both naturally occurring and excavated by other species since they cannot excavate them. The nesting cavities are usually high from the forest floor, this affords the nest protection from most predators. The availability of suitable cavities has been one of the factors limiting the species recovery, for that reason artificial nest cavities are used to enhance nesting habitat.

🌳 Searching through the forest for the perfect host tree to instal artificial nest for the parrots it's no easy task. Once we have a candidate and inspect the surroundings, we get a high anchor point in the tree and climb to establish a climbing route to reach the canopy safely with no obstructions. Making the climbing route safe for future biologist so they can concentrate in their work. We love our job for the parrots💚

Muchos niños y niñas cuando ven un árbol sienten deseos instintivos de subirse a él. Nuestros ancestros trepaban por los árboles y quizás todavía algunos sintamos una pizca de esa biológica querencia por estar arriba del árbol. Para un alma infantil, ver el mundo desde la altura de un árbol, aunque sea pequeño, se presenta como una extraordinaria aventura que conlleva un logro físico y la promesa de descubrir algo nuevo e importante del mundo desde la sugerente perspectiva de no tener los pies en la tierra.

Subirse a los árboles es una experiencia que enriquece a los niños. Está demostrado que el contacto físico y emocional con la naturaleza es necesario para crecer sanos y libres. Sin embargo en la forma de vida actual los niños pasan mucho tiempo en el interior de casas y edificios, ocupados con múltiples actividades con tabletas y celulares, sin apenas opciones de deambular por espacios verdes donde encontrarse con árboles.

“We have such a brief opportunity to pass on to our children our love for this Earth, and to tell our stories. These are the moments when the world is made whole. In my children’s memories, the adventures we’ve had together in nature will always exist.”
―Richard Louv - Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder.

First day of April @ Northeast Ecological Corridor Nature Reserve. It doesn't look like the end of the world here, quite the contrary.

🌴Experiencia Virtual: En lo alto desde la tumba coco.🥥 🚫Trepamos sin espuelas.🚫 Las palmas no son árboles, son familia de las hierbas, por esto no pueden sanar sus heridas como lo hacen los árboles. Las espuelas de hierro que utilizan muchos para trepar crean agujeros en el tronco de la palma que causan eventualmente putrefacción, infección y otras enfermedades. Por esto Arbonautas utiliza una plataforma de trepa especial para proteger el tronco y mantener la palma sana, le llamamos la tumba coco.🥥
