The Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory (RMBO) was founded in 1988 to address the conservation needs of birds in the Rocky Mountains and Great Plains. RMBO employs a broad spectrum of tactics toward this end, including international partnerships and projects. Given that most birds of the Rocky Mountains and Great Plains are migratory, often spending more of their lives on the winter grounds than on the breeding grounds, RMBO recognizes the critical importance of adequate non-breeding habitats for the conservation of Neotropical migrant birds of our region. Mexico is by far the single most important country for over-wintering Neotropical migrant birds from the western U.S. Conserving habitats for Neotropical migrants in Mexico will also serve the needs of the many resident and endemic bird species this mega-diverse country.
