Forwarding request for sightings reports of  Shorebirds banded in Peru:
(see bottom of email for where to send reports)

Dear everyone,

We hope all of you are more than well. As we are in the middle of the 
northwards migration, we would like you to know a little more about our actual 
work with shorebirds in Peru. After 2 years of fieldwork in Paracas National 
Reserve, we have banded 1680 shorebirds, between semipalmated and western 
sandpipers, sanderlings and semipalmated plover. The 90% of our captures were 
semipalmated and western sandpipers. But we also have banded (2) red knots and 
few ruddy turnstones. We use an incoloy band in the right tarsus and a yellow 
flag with red letters in the left leg.

Currently we are just waiting to see if anyone in the northern hemisphere is 
seeing these individuals at any time and at any point.  It would be very 
exciting for us to have any resighting, and we collaborate with: 
www.bandedbirds.org<http://www.bandedbirds.org> , but you can also feel free to 
contact me directly if you see any of our marked individuals.

We are going to start another field campaign this coming October which will 
last until March 2014. So we hope to continue gathering as much data as 
possible.

Thank you very much for your time and please feel free to distribute this flyer 
(attached) to anyone interested in shorebirds conservation.

Warmest regards,
Eveling
