Robert Gallardo grew up in California, and from an early age he loved nature. He started collecting butterflies at age 11 and has continued that passion ever since. He began birdwatching while attending Humboldt State University and, after graduating, went to Honduras as a Peace Corps Volunteer. During his service, he was taken in by the splendor of Neotropical birds. During the last 11 years he has seen 85% of Honduras' species, and has recorded 11 new ones. He is a contributor to North American Birds magazine, and will soon be published in Cotinga, Journal of the Neotropical Bird Club. Robert resides in the charming little town of Copan Ruins in western Honduras with his wife Irma, where they own and operate a nature center.
