Annual bird migration is one of the most amazing wildlife spectacles in North America. Highly sensitive to weather conditions, large flocks of birds leave their nesting sites in cold locations in Canada and the U.S., to undertake a long journey south, in search of better weather, as well as shelter and food.

June 5th marks World Environment Day, a date to reflect on the inherent commitment of human beings toward the environment.

Ongoing binational cooperation in stainable Colorado River management benefits nature, communities, and farmers in the Delta region

Tracking animals in the wild is an effective tool for environmental conservation, as it allows us to better understand habitat use and migratory movements, as well as the identification of important areas for each species.

The Pacific coast of the Americas is considered an ecological region of main relevance for our continent, with ecosystems that are threatened by factors such as urban growth, pollution and global warming.

The Colorado River Delta is a strategic stopover for shorebirds traveling the Pacific Flyway.

This April 22nd, we celebrate International Mother Earth Day. It is a date that allows us to remember the invaluable wealth that nature provides us daily and, at the same time, the risk of losing it.

Every year, northwestern Mexico is the scene of an extraordinary event. When winter arrives, millions of birds from North America travel south in search of temperate weather, shelter and food.

Although they go unnoticed due to their tiny size, the role of pollinators is essential to ecological balance, which allows us to survive as humans.

In the distant month of October 2006, the staff of the Bird Laboratory of the Autonomous University of Baja California Sur (UABCS) banded for the first time a Red Knot (Calidris canutus roselaari) in the facilities of the Exportadora de Sal SA de CV, in Guerrero Negro, Baja California Sur. It was for banding purposes, placing a color flag with the code 000 on the bird´s leg.

Since 2019 we have been partners of GlobalGiving, a crowdfunding platform that allows us to share projects with people like you interested in the conservation of northwestern Mexico.

Right at the start of spring, the Gulf grunion (Leuresthes sardina) arrived this week in large numbers to begin its extraordinary spawning process on the beach.

These projects were selected during a certificate course Pronatura Noroeste taught together with UABCS directed at students from all over the country and focused on the community improving its relationship with the natural environment and thus protecting the nesting and feeding areas of these birds.

This monitoring, which we carry out together with UABCS, is aimed to detect population changes in shorebirds and migratory birds, as well as possible threats to their habitat. It is conducted every two years as a part of a continent-wide effort for wetlands in the Pacific.

As part of National Conservation Day, celebrated on November 27th, Pronatura Noroeste successfully promoted the third session of local bird-watching in the Municipal Youth´s Ecopark , in the city of La Paz, Baja California Sur.
