We are pleased to share with you the report we have prepared about the Neotropical Waterbird Census (CNAA, its acronym in Spanish), at the Cojedes state (Venezuela) during February 2014, hoping it will be of your interest. Any suggestions or input is always welcome.
Will find more information about our activities and projects in our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/aramacaovenezuela).

In summary, 2,858 individuals belonging to 33 species (10 herons and egrets, 7 shorebirds, 7 ibises and related and 4 ducks) were counted. The most abundant species was the Black-bellied Whistling-duck (Dendrocygna autumnalis) with 2,202 individuals, the Blue-winged Teal (Anas discors) with 209 birds and White-faced Whistling-duck (Dendrocygna viduata) with 104 individuals. Was also observed, from North America, 8 Least Sandpipers (Calidris minutilla) and 1 Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias). Fulvous Whistling-duck (Dendrocygna bicolor), not observed in previous censuses, was counted with 84 individuals.
Next July we will do again the Neotropical Waterbird Census (CNAA) at Cojedes state... We are waiting for you!
