I hereby wish to express our concern about a situation that occurred in the city of Puerto Natales last week in the context of the Neo Tropical Waterfowl Census that is being carried out in the region by various volunteers and that in this locality was Carried out by José Díaz Tavie, member of the Patagonian Ecological Association from the regional tourism capital. 
 
In the sector comprised of Manger Sernatur or Pier Mackerel, up to the San Sebastián Grotto Sector, I found, (says José), the following: more than 30 dead birds mostly Imperial Cormorants, all adults, 1 Giant Petrel, 1 Albatross Black Eyebrow, Pilpilenes, Chickens of Caiquenes and 2 Common Marine Wolves killed, many of them already with carrion signals. 
 
The complaint was forwarded to the Superintendency of the Environment and to the SAG as well as the written media. 
 
Unfortunately news like this does not cause the commotion they should, but we find it very worrisome that there are several dead species on the coast that many of us travel and that Jose runs regularly, for some reason other people we are not seeing there was a bird death Which should concern us.
