Zaida Piedra led the local committee for the Mesoamerican Society for Biology and Conservation (SMBC), handled all the hotel arrangements, and coordinated the PIF program with the SMBC program. Thank you all! Your financial support allowed us to provide scholarships to 30 students and biologists from 9 different countries, including Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, and most of the Central American countries. John Hannan helped us set up a funding mechanism for individuals at Razoo that produced about $5,000 towards travel scholarships for Mesoamerican participants, primarily from PIF members, especially the Western Working Group when the members challenged each other to contribute. I want to particularly thank Pablo Elizondo of Costa Rica Bird Observatories who led the PIF local committee for the meeting and Sue Bonfield of Environment for the Americas who handled the U.S.-based financial arrangements. Nine excellent plenaries contributed to the overall program. I can share abstracts of presentations that people are particularly interested in. ![]() In addition to those listed, many people made valuable scientific contributions to the meeting, so please check the schedule to find those. Below I will try to thank all those who made major contributions. This meeting would not have been possible without the help of multitudes. We have just finished a very successful sixth international meeting of Partners in Flight in San Jose, Costa Rica.
