Sasriasztó „Eagle Alarming” 2010

 

The origins of this traditional meeting dates back to 1989 where the first venue was held at the foothills of the Vértes Mountains. This friendly and non-formal event is traditionally organized by MME/BirdLife Hungary’s Raptor Conservation Working Group, and held at different locations each year.

Initially only 5-10 participants were present however; nowadays the venue hosts a total of 50-80 field conservationists and activist. The weekend programme constitutes of field trips and informal discussions on the given year’s experience and peculiarities happening in filed. In 2010, the event was organized within the scope of the project „Conservation management and animal health monitoring of natura 2000 bird species” (CONSN2KBIRDS - HU-SRB/0901/122/120) by the KNPD and MME/BirdLife Hungary. Altogether 52 participants - representing a total of 11 nature conservationists organizations – visited the event at the Bösztör-puszta facility of the KNPD. Unfortunately, the near continuous rain literally washed away the field excursions. Nonetheless, participants enjoyed the two day get together even though most of it was held indoors.

A találkozóra, melyenkét ország (Magyarország és Szerbia) 11 természetvédelmi szervezete részéről összesen 52 szakember vett részt, a kiskunsági Bösztör-pusztán, Kunszentmiklós közelében került sor. Sajnos a folyamatos esőzések szinte szó szerint elmosták a program terepi részét, de a régi ismerősökként találkozó szakemberek így is jól érezték magukat.
