Gabriel Lugo

Gabriel has been an independent Puerto Rico Certified Tour Guide and birding guide for the last decade, leading birding groups in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Cuba, and North America. He has been a central part of the birding community in Puerto Rico for more than twelve years. A life changing moment was when Sociedad Ornitológica Puertorriqueña, Inc. (SOPI) approached him where he used to work for permits to enter a property to undertake a bird count. He was hooked by this amazing world of birds, with no plans to leave anytime soon! He now serves on SOPI’s Board of Directors and will keep working hard to educate on and protect Puerto Rico’s birds and their habitats.
