He&nbsp;has a B.S. in Zoology and an M.S. in Ecology and Evolution from the University of Toronto,&nbsp;and also conducted research at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, British Columbia. An expert on the birds of California and North America, he wrote the <em>American Birding Association Field Guide to Birds of California <\/em>and<em> New World Blackbirds&nbsp;<\/em>(check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/M-KBSjXzo7g\" target=\"_blank\">Birdy Hour talk<\/a> he presented for us on blackbirds). He is also an authority on the birds of Chile, authoring&nbsp;<em>Birds of Chile&nbsp;(2003),&nbsp;<\/em>collaborating on Chile\u2019s Important Bird Areas program, and helping to identify a new bird species there, <em>Oceanites pincoyae<\/em> (Pincoya Storm-Petrel).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An author and contributor to numerous field guides and popular publications, Alvaro\u2019s passion is not only to understand the biology and natural history of birds, but to enrich other\u2019s enjoyment of birds and further avian conservation, so he leads birding trips throughout the&nbsp;world with his company, <a href=\"http:\/\/alvarosadventures.com\" target=\"_blank\">Alvaro&#8217;s Adventures<\/a>. He is also a recipient of the Eisenmann Medal of the Linnean Society of New York, which honors people who excel in ornithology and encourage the amateur.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alvaro&#8217;s workshops&nbsp;incorporate ecology, evolutionary biology, behavioral ecology, and natural history to complement bird identification information. Past workshop topics include shorebirds, raptors, waterfowl, bird sound, migration, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of 2020, Alvaro&#8217;s workshops will be administered online over Zoom, and we are <strong>not <\/strong>requiring workshop participants to be SFBBO members. These workshops are recommended for students (high school and up) and adults. As part of our <a href=\"\/staging\/1924\/statement_of_commitment_for_racial_justice\/\">commitment to racial justice<\/a>, we are offering scholarships to students from underrepresented backgrounds. Scholarships will be awarded on a first-come first-served basis, and recipients will be contacted if a scholarship becomes available.
