Indigenous Communities and Birds: A Photographic Guide
This booklet features a photographic introduction to the birds that live around the Mitú, Vaupés community through the lens of the indigenous Kubeo people. As part of an etho-ornithology study, the guide values the relationship between human cultures and birds, and so the guide features the original Pamikamú name of the birds – calling upon the expertise of those who live within the bird’s community. This photographic guide can be a tool for those who want to learn more about birds and indigenous cultures who have customarily interacted with them. Click here to Download!

Illustrated Tally Sheets of Colombian Birds
The Cornell Lab of Ornithology has collaborated with several Colombian organizations, which have requested printable materials for their activities in their communities. We have co-created illustrated tally sheets focused on 16 common bird species for their regions. These sheets are easy to print because they are letter size. They have additional activities on their back page for recording additional species and more. They are helpful materials for beginners and/or children. To download some of these tally sheets click on the links below.
