On October 1, 2014, we started Proyecto Mucarito (PM), an environmental program of the
Puerto Rican Association of Interpretation and Education, Inc. (APIE) as part of our corporate
social responsibility.
Through Proyecto Mucarito we will be training teachers of both the public and private education
systems in order for them to learn about the birds in their schools and neighborhood. We
already published the first of a series of posters for their classroom.
We also signed a collaborative agreement with Para La Naturaleza, an unit from the Puerto Rico
Conservation Trust. Once a year, Proyecto Mucarito will also be available for a shorter training
at their facilities. As part of this agreement, we will be in charge on the monthly bird count at
Medio Mundo, Daguao, and Los Machos Wetland. This also applies for the Christmas Bird
Count.
Starting this Summer (2015), CAMP Mucarito will be available for anyone over 12 years old who
want to learn about birds, how to identify them through hearing. We will using a workbook that
is part of our new book The ABC of the Birds of the Archipelago of Puerto Rico: A practical
guide for bird identification.
An Annual Fund has been established. For each birding trip, $1 per person will be donated to
this fund that will be granted after evaluating proposals from students of the region (Ceiba,
Naguabo, Fajardo, Luquillo, Río Grande, Vieques and Culebra) for research on the Puerto Rican
Yellow-shouldered Blackbird.
Interpretation trainings and photography workshops will be available in the area; residents of
the above mentioned towns will receive a discount.
Starting September, 2015, the Internship Program will be available for tourism students from
the Interamerican University in Fajardo. Other schools and universities will be added during this
five year period.
