OUR GUIDES
Henry Gonzales Pinedo
I live in the city of Tarapoto in northern Peru, and I began guiding birdwatchers in 2007. I currently work as a birdwatching guide throughout the northern, central, and southern circuits of Peru, and I also guide in Bolivia, Argentina, Ecuador, and Brazil. I have strong skills in identifying bird species by their vocalizations and knowledge of their habitats. In addition, I have knowledge of herpetology and mammals.
I have also gained other professional experiences that contributed to my development as a guide. From 2011 to 2014, I worked as a researcher and ornithology assistant with the NGO Asociación Ecosistemas Andinos (ECOAN) in the regions of San Martín and Amazonas. From 2012 to 2014, I collaborated with Thomas Arndt, a world expert on macaws (“parrots”). In 2015, with the NGO Naturaleza y Cultura Perú, I participated in the search for the endemic White-masked Antbird for conservation and ecotourism development purposes in the Loreto region.
I also have experience conducting migratory bird monitoring and bird inventories with the American Bird Conservancy and ECOAN.
My name is Christian Trejos from Valle del Cauca Colombia, a professional tour guide, Andean bird informant for Audubon, and amateur photographer. With more than ten years of experience in birdwatching across Colombia, he has carried out his work throughout the country’s diverse ecosystems, developing extensive knowledge of Colombia’s birdlife and key birding areas.
He is the founder of the first Community Bird Festival of Valle del Cauca and the Aves La Cumbre agency, through which he promotes responsible bird tourism and the conservation of local ecosystems.
He has also participated in various projects in natural reserves and ecological parks, supporting bird festivals in different regions of the country.
