Birds of Ecuador Photo Gallery by Roger Ahlman at pbase.com

Birds of Ecuador

The aim of this gallery is to market my pictures to a wide audience. It is also to give visitors an idea of the great diversity this small country has to offer and that is why some images of rather poor quality have been included.
As of mid August 2024 these galleries have pictures of 1328 species all taken in mainland Ecuador. Mainland Ecuador and Galapagos have 1357 species.
Enjoy!

Incredible photos. I returned from a three week visit to Ecuador (week and half at Quito, Tandayapa and Milpe; 7 day cruise in the southern islands of the Galapagos). Yr photos have been of great help in IDing birds that we observed. Thank you for all the hard work.

Dear Roger, We love all of your pictures! When we were with you this past November at Tandayapa Lodge (mother and daughter), you talked about birding in the Amazonian side of the Ecuadorian Andes. We very much enjoyed birding with you and your knowledge of the area. We would love to bird with you again. We sent an e-mail to your yahoo account a few weeks ago, but have not heard anything. What is the best way to get in touch with you? Pauline and Deirdre

Great eye! Thanks for the beautiful pictures of the birds of Ecuador. We are waiting for the pictures of the Galápagos birds, especially Darwin’s Finches. Thanks for helping us find them all on our visit to the Galápagos. Más vale pájaro en mano que cien volando. ¡Gracias Roger!

Great galleries Roger. I have looked through them all now, and they bring back great memories of our trip. Also makes me realize just how much we didn't see! I want to come back! Carol

What a marvelous collection of bird photos, and in particular those of the tanagers and the hummingbirds. It's an orgy of beautiful birds. How is it possible that one could find so many beautiful birds in one small country. Thanks for presenting us the opportunity to see these photos.
