The Birds of the Shepherds - Field trips (morning) - Full
Opportunity to visit the favourite feeding grounds of the Red-billed Chough, the flagship species of the Birds of the Shepherds project. Throughout the excursion, we also hope to observe other species associated with the project, while keeping an eye out for the migratory birds around us. During the outing, we will stop to meet a shepherd and their livestock in the field, whose traditional grazing practices are essential for the conservation of the Birds of the Shepherds.
