"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE--The Canopy Tower, a former U.S. military radar tower converted to an ecotourism lodge sits in the rainforest 35km from Panama City, Panama, Dec. 10, 1999. The tower is the most visible symbol of Panama's attempt to turn former U.S. land toward new uses. The Audubon Society has named the Canopy Tower one of the 10 best places in the world for bird watching. (AP Photo/Tomas van Houtryve)" AP Photo Archives http://accuweather.ap.org
