White-winged Nightjar , Paraguay, Laguna Blanca, September 2015

PLEASE VOTE TO SAVE THIS MAGNIFICENT BIRD!!
It's a sobering thought that on a tour primarily aimed to raise money for conservation, with the White-winged Nightjar as the iconic species, we discovered that its stronghold, Laguna Blanca, may be sold. If this were to happen, the habitat for this rare species would be destroyed in the name of soya production. There is hope though, as the NGO striving to protect the species may be awarded an important EU grant, that could give the site a stay of execution. All you need to do, is vote for their project. Please take the time to click the link and vote, so others may enjoy this amazing bird! The project to vote for is Ocelots, Anacondas, and the Broad Headed Spiny Rat, Paraguay
