Torrent Duck of the Ecuadorian Rainforest

http://hubpages.com –

The Torrent Duck is fairly common along the Andean slopes from western Venezuela to Tierra del Fuego in southern Chile. Within Ecuador it can be found in the tropical rainforest along swift-flowing rivers and streams on both slopes. Also, where conditions are amicable, this spectacular bird can be observed in the Inter-Andean valleys. Preferring altitudes above 1,500 meters (5,000 ft) it can be readily detected from 700 – 3,200 m (2,300 – 10,500 ft). Although there is little reason it should not be found along the entire slope of the west there are few reports of it south of Cotopaxi.

Of the 3000 species of birds inhabiting the continent of South America, over half of those species can be encountered in this small and friendly nation. What makes birding in Ecuador even more appealing is that most of these birds are easily accessible by public transportation. It is the goal of this blog to highlight the avian beauty of this country through photographic images and in-depth descriptions.

Travel Website- Best Local Guides

http://www.independent.co.uk –

Leaplocal.org

A basic but brilliant idea, this stylishly designed but easy-to-use site is designed to put travellers in touch with the best local guides in the destination they're heading to, thereby also helping local communities benefit from tourism. At the moment it's not a genuinely comprehensive point of information - the vast majority of guides listed so far are in South America, where the project started - but it has oodles of potential once the site becomes better known in other regions.
