A big win for migratory wildlife today! 🦅 Ten countries gathered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to launch CMS' South‑West Asia Illegal Taking of Migratory Birds Intergovernmental Task Force. Governments and partners have united to confront the unlawful capture and trade of millions of birds each year, like Steppe Eagles, falcons & Sociable Plovers. 🐦 This is multilateral conservation in action!

important feedback on the CMS MIKT/Bern C meeting on tackling illegal killing of birds 👇💪 thanks for the excellent organisation @BonnConvention @_Ivan_Ramirez @ClairiePapa and participation @LillaBarabas1 @Bolek_Slocinski 🙏
At this week’s Bonn meeting, the CMS Mediterranean Illegal Killing Task Force united 30-plus countries and observers around a common framework to combat illegal bird killing. 🐦 Delegates endorsed a new survey on poaching motivations, spotlighted Spain’s and UK’s successful specialist enforcement units, applauded Montenegro’s newly adopted National Action Plan and parallel advances in Croatia and Albania, and learnt @BirdLife_News' latest successes and challenges assessment. The gathering culminated in a renewed pledge for tougher monitoring, enforcement and anti-persecution measures to eliminate this critical threat to migratory birds. • Meeting documents: cms.int/en/meeting/joint-mee… • Fact Sheet on Illegal Taking of #MigratoryBirds: cms.int/sites/default/files/… • Fact Sheet on Task Force on Illegal Killing, Taking and Trade in the Mediterranean (#MIKT): cms.int/sites/default/files/… #ProtectBirds #ForNature #ConservationAction

The extraordinary migration of the satellite tagged male falcon Chiuluan2, originating from Chiuluan village in Manipur continues to amaze as he arrived in Mozambique, having traversed an incredible path through Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi, and Zambia. Chiuluan2 had earlier reached Somalia in just five days and 17 hours, traversing 3000 Kms over the Arabian sea. Following a similar path, a female falcon named Guangram has initiated her non-stop flight across the Arabian Sea after making stop overs at Angul in Odisha, Indravati Tiger Reserve in Chhattisgarh, and Tadoba Tiger Reserve in Maharashtra, highlighting the critical stopover sites that support these birds during their extensive migration. These tracking efforts, led by Dr. Suresh Kumar of the Wildlife Institute of India, provide invaluable insights into the migratory patterns of Amur falcons, emphasizing the importance of conservation initiatives along their migratory routes. Wishing these avian travelers safe passage on their extraordinary journeys. #BirdMigration #AmurFalcon #Chiuluan2 #Guangram. Info @wii_india
In an awe-inspiring feat, Chiuluan2,one of the two satellite-tagged Amur Falcons named after a village in Manipur's Tamenglong district has reached its first stopover site in Somalia in five days and 17 hours after flying non-stop and crossing the Arabian Sea. This incredible migration, part of a study by the Manipur Forest Department, Wildlife Institute of India (WII), and local communities, sheds light on the challenges and routes of these long-distance travelers. Amur Falcons, known for their epic journeys from Southeast Russia and China to Africa, demonstrate unmatched stamina and navigation, including non-stop flights over the Arabian Sea. Incredible ! #amurfalcon #Birdmigration #migratorybirds #wildlife @wii_india @tnforestdept source hindustantimes.com

Sobre Valencia sobrevuelan, disfrazados de Teresa de Calcuta, demasiados buitres que solo han ido a ayudarse a sí mismos. No son difíciles de identificar: si nada más llegar ya te están mostrando un vídeo de ellos mismos, eso es exactamente lo que les importa: ellos mismos.
