Field Guides contributes annually to the following conservation organizations:

The Nature Conservancy

BirdLife International

Conservation International

Additionally, we make targeted contributions to individual conservation or research projects important to areas we visit on some of our tours.

Our gifts in 2011 included targeted contributions in support of the Red-fronted Macaw project (Bolivia), part of Armonia's "Preventing Extinctions" program (another Armonia project bird, the Blue-throated Macaw which we also see on our Bolivia tours, is pictured above in guide George Armistead's image); in support of improvements at the Owlet Lodge and the Huembo Spatuletail Center (Peru), part of Asosiacion Ecosistemas Andinos (ECOAN) and the American Bird Conservancy's protected reserves; and in support of the Tucson Audubon Society's fundraising gala (United States).

Furthermore, our individual staff and guides are involved directly personally in numerous conservation organizations, land trusts, research organizations, and fund-raising efforts on behalf of such organizations -- everything from conservation issues in Brazil and Ecuador to research on avian distribution in El Salvador to more home-grown, local assistance to land trusts in North America.
