Edmund Heller - List of birds collected in Peru, 1914-15

About the Project

The top of Machu Picchu sits on a mountain nearly 8,000 feet above sea level--what type of birds might you find perched that far above ground? Find out with naturalist Edmund Heller's bird list from the 1915 National Geographic Society Yale University Peruvian Expedition. Heller's list documents the observed birds' common names, as well as where they were spotted on the expedition. Join the trek to Machu Picchu and help transcribe this bird list for present day ornithologists! And don't forget to check out Heller's diaries from the expedition, also ready for transcription!
