The Spoon-billed Sandpiper grant was successful, thanks and well done to everyone who managed to vote, this will be a great boost to protecting the species' crucial migration stop-off's.

The chance to vote for Spoony on the Disney website seems to have ended or something. I'm sorry to see that, but let's hope it got the quantity of votes it needed.

Try the above link. It also gives you some background then just use the UK link. It's all above board.

As someone who's self-found his own Spoon-billed Sandpiper, i have a special place in my heart for this fantasically enigmatic little wader and cannot stress how important our support could be.

A unique opportunity for anyone who loves birds has arisen to secure the critically endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper (Eurynorhynchus pygmeus) upto a massive $1,000,000 for conservation efforts to save this species from a rapidly approaching extinction. To help, it's free and quick. All you need to do is register on the Disney website and vote for this project. This is our chance to spend a little moment of time which could potentially save an extraordinary but struggling species!

To register and vote paste the link into your browser - https://registration.disneyinternational.com/login.htm?task=login&p=130&next_url=http%253A//www.disney.co.uk/index.jsp&site_code=UK.EN.DIS&fullScreen=true

For more information paste the link into your browser - http://worldwaders.posterous.com/birding-community-must-be-strengthened

Thanks. Henry.
