- Its altitude chart compares six species’ ranges with the farm’s 2,330 m elevation; the site distinguishes personally photographed birds.
Field notes
The species pages compare each bird’s altitude range with the farm’s elevation, and distinguish the eastern slope from hummingbird areas west of Quito. A road guide gives distances and typical drive times from Quito, Papallacta, Guango, Cuyuja, and Baeza. The family says it is planting native fuchsias, tacso passionflowers, and red angel’s trumpet; the lookout is not yet open.
