Dear bird friends!

 

We are happy to announce that the lecture nights series “Universities to society!”, that started this autumn and is arranged by the EOÜ (Estonian Ornithological Society), are continued  this week already. As before we try to keep up with the latest in bird research, and invite ornithology researchers to share their fresh discoveries with bird enthusiasts. Bird scientists talk about the newest results from their work, and  show us some of the backstage of science. There will be new surprising results and plenty of illustrations from colourful field work, and the lectures are easy to follow and understand for everybody.
All are welcome!
 

February 11: Ülo Väli (Estonian University of Life Sciences) - Are we losing our greater spotted eagles?

 

The lecture will be held in the auditorium of Baer’s house, Veski 4, Tartu, beginning at 18.15, and lasts about one and a half hour. More information by phone 742 2195.
