Wader Conservation World Watch is all about participating and standing up to say 

"We Care!"

We care that the Yellow Sea is being devastated.

We care that 50% of UK lapwings have disappeared.

We care that the Spoon-billed Sandpiper is heading for extinction.

We care that 48% of known wader populations are in decline.

We care that wet meadow nesting chicks are being destroyed by early mowing.

We care that thousands of waders are still hunted.

We care that Hooded Plovers still can't find a place on the beach to breed.

We care that wetlands are being drained.

We care that Black Stilts only cling to existence due to captive breeding.

We care that 6 wader species are Extinct.
We care that 8 wader species are Critically Endangered.
We care that 4 of those are probably Extinct.
We care that 9 wader species are Endangered (2 new recently).
We care that 9 wader species are Vulnerable.
We care that 29 wader species are Near threatened (6 new recently)
and finally 
We care enough to stand up and be counted.

Waders need love too!

Also send your sightings to eBird and/or Bird Track; this helps conservation too!
