ORNITHOLOGICAL ROUTE
AND RINGING WORKSHOP

We discover the fascinating world of birds with Mateo’s help, a local ornithologist who carries out bird censuses at different times of the year thanks to the scientific ringing technique.

We will observe birds in the different ecosystems of the town: the cropland and the river and forest areas. Participants will be divided into 2 groups, the first one taking part in the scientific ringing while the second one takes part in an interpretive walk in search of birds and after that the other way around.
