Text description provided by the architects. The extensive investigations of isthmian avi fauna carried out by the renowned Panamanian ornithologist Eugene Eisenmann during the 1950s and 60s significantly influenced subsequent generations of ornithologists, including Robert Ridgely and John Gwynn, author and illustrator, respectively, of the classic field guide “The Birds of Panama”. In 2005 Ridgely and Gwynn were instrumental in the organization of the Eugene Eisenmann Avifauna Foundation in homage to their mentor, and in the identification of its mission to protect and preserve native bird habitats throughout Panama.
