The biggest celebration of family, sport, and healthy lifestyle - Familathlon 2022, will finally be live again in Sofia, Bulgaria. The event has been running for over a decade now. This year, Familathlon 2022 will be in the fall - on September 3 between 10:00 and 16:00. We will be expecting all parents and children at a new location - Sofia Summer Fest, behind the "Earth and Man” National Museum.
Great news from Slovakia - the successful previous year in terms of the number of chicks was surpassed! This year the team from the Coordinating Beneficiary Raptor Protection of Slovakia recorded over 160 chicks in total! The Saker Falcon, also called the jewel of our lowlands, was struggling to find a sufficient supply of nests in natural conditions (as it does not build its own nests).
Tracking the movements of 6 Imperial Eagles will be possible thanks to the installation of 6 satellite transmitters in Slovakia. Data from the transmitters will be helpful in targeting the dangerous pylons in the project area that might cause danger for young individuals. Besides these juveniles in Slovakia, the satellite transmitters will be installed on 6 Saker Falcons in Serbia and 6 Dalmatian Pelicans from Romania. We are already looking forward to the data on where their paths will lead!
