It couldnโt have happened differently. During its last weekend for 2020, ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฑ๐๐ ๐๐น๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ป๐ถ๐ฎ concluded the 9th and 10th sessions with impressive observations in terms of both quantity and variety.
๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐ท๐ผ๐รซ-๐ก๐ฎ๐ฟ๐รซ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฒ never disappoints when it comes to giving you magical bird flights, endless flocks of waders that occupy the corners of the Salinas, and it looks as though they are communing with one another. And as we get a little closer to the flocks, thousands of individuals of the European golden plover illuminate the water surface with their reflection. Of course, in this natural avian competition, it is also worth mentioning the mesmerizing performance of the Northern lapwing, which immediately steals the attention of those present, leaving everyone breathless.
We could not conclude this session without visiting ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ๐๐น๐๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐น ๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ธรซ๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ, thus presenting the importance and values that they have in regards to birds. This sparked debates about the ๐ฉ๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฎ ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐, analyzing every implicit aspect. Of course, with their participation in BirdId and especially the knowledge they have gained so far, the students are much more sensitive to such investments and especially when they are planned to be built in ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฑ ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ (๐๐๐) and in ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ (๐๐๐).
