To this end the AEWA Secretariat is planning to produce a high-end coffee table book featuring some of the waterbird species for which the Agreement has undertaken initiatives. The concept for the book is to source high quality photographs, which ideally have not been published before, from the extensive AEWA network and wider birding community. We hope to source as many images as possible free of charge and will, in exchange, include short profiles of all contributing photographers in the book together with a portrait photo as well as a website link to the photographer’s website (if applicable). Contributing photographers will also receive a copy of the book for free. We are looking for pictures of the following species (between 4 and 6 pictures of each) taken in the WILD: – Lesser White-fronted Goose (Anser erythropus); – Pink-footed Goose (Anser brachyrhynchus); – ; Red-breasted Goose (Branta ruficollis); – Taiga Bean Goose (Anser f. fabalis); – Bewick’s Swan (Cygnus columbianus bewickii); – White-headed Duck (Oxyura leucocephala); – Long-tailed Duck (Clangula hyemalis); – Ferruginous Duck (Aythya nyroca); – Black-tailed Godwit (Limosa limosa); – Eurasian Spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia); – Northern Bald Ibis (Geronticus eremita); – Sociable Lapwing (Vanellus gregarius); – White-winged Flufftail (Sarothrura ayresi); – &n bsp; Shoebill (Balaeniceps rex); – Slaty Egret (Egretta vinaceigula); – Lesser Flamingo (Phoeniconaias minor); – Grey Crowned Crane (Balearica regulorum); – African Penguin (Spheniscus demersus); – Damara Tern (Sternula balaenarum); -&n bsp; Cape Gannet (Morus capensis); – Bank Cormorant (Phalacrocorax neglectus); – Crowned Cormorant (Microcarbo coronatus); – Cape Cormorant (Phalacrocorax capensis); – African Black Oystercatcher (Haematopus moquini). Pictures should be JPG files at 300dpi, have as high resolution as possible and the color space should be Adobe RGB.

If you already have photographs which you would like to suggest for the book, please send them directly to Dunia Sforzin. For each photo please provide the name of the species, the location where the image has been taken as well as the month and year when it has been taken.
