Greetings All,

I thought this image of a pre-Incan petroglyph I photographed near the town of Cotundo in the Napo province of Amazonian Ecuador might be a fun image with which to anchor this blog.  We could venture to say this was the earliest form of blogging, leaving messages in a single place where others could come and visit. I made this photograph during an expedition with archeologists from Ecuador’s Museo de Arqueologia Weilbauer to document and catalog important rock art sites in the upper Amazon basin before they are lost to vandalism and erosion.

Stay tuned here for conservation updates, natural history articles about the plant and animal life of Amazonian Ecuador, previews of coming tours, photo tips and photographs from me and our tour participants!

Saludos!
