Rosabel Miró will share some of the activities and initiatives of the Panama Audubon Society, as well as stories and photos of Panamanian wildlife. The National Audubon Society has partnered with the Panama Audubon Society since 2006 to promote the conservation of critical habitats.

Panama’s landscape is very diverse, and that and its position between South and North America has led to outstanding biodiversity. There are flat coastal lowlands, huge river systems, dry and wet forests, cloud forests, grasslands, swamps, mountains, and vast jungles, all in a country approximately the size of South Carolina. As a bridge between two land masses, Panama also serves as a transit route for many migratory species and its coasts are home to sea, shore and water birds, both from the Atlantic and the Pacific.
