Working in Galápagos is more than just a job—it’s a mission, a deep connection to a fragile and unique ecosystem. With 12 years of experience in communication, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing how the collaboration between science and communication is one of the most powerful strategies for conserving this paradise.
In this story, I’ll share one of my most recent field experiences in the Scalesia forest at Los Gemelos, where nature and human effort come together to protect our home.

With a heart-shaped face and silent wings, the Galapagos barn owl is a quiet force of balance in the archipelago’s ecosystems. Endemic to the Islands, this elusive predator controls invasive rodent populations, supporting the survival of critically endangered species and ongoing ecological restoration. In the shadows of lava tunnels and forest canopies, it hunts with precision—and reminds us that even the smallest wings can carry the weight of conservation.
