Abstract

Aproximadamente la mitad de las aves que anidan en Canadá y Estados Unidos migran al Neotrópico durante la temporada no reproductiva, pasando entre seis y nueve meses en sus zonas de invernada. De manera similar, alrededor de un tercio de la avifauna de México migra hacia el norte, a Canadá y Estados Unidos, durante la temporada de nidificación, que ocurre entre abril y agosto. La conservación de las aves migratorias Neotropicales es una responsabilidad compartida por todos los países y personas de las Américas. Desde 1989, el Programa MoSI, una red de cooperadores independientes administrado por el Institute for Bird Populations, trabaja para entender la ecología de las aves migratorias durante su temporada no reproductiva. En los últimos años, el programa ha tenido un crecimiento notable, tanto en el número de participantes como en los sub-programas que ha instituido.
