This is Burtnor. Inspiration happens in many ways. Sometimes it comes from a bird.

And sometimes it comes from a person we admire.

My name is Marina Castellino. I am the younger sister of Marcella.

Inspiration for Marina came in the form of her older sister, Marcella Castellino.

But in reality, my main inspiration for the development of love for the nature of the birds was my sister.

Marina is telling us that she and Marcella share a love of birds, especially those living in Marcequita,

one of South America's largest wetlands.

These also led Marina to get into conservation projects, including with Manovets efforts to help shorebirds.

The two sisters helped get Marcequita declared a national park and national reserve for Argentina.

That supports birds like sandpipers that migrate between the shores of South and North America.

So if you see one near you, efforts from Marina may have helped you see it there.

To think hem is spherically and act locally in conjunction with young people and local communities.

That's how we can work together to conserve these places and species.

Hopefully Marina has inspired you today as her sister Marcella once did to her.

This show is part of a series on Manovets short-bred conservation research and it's also available in Spanish.
