Field Visit to Al-Barda’a Island for Monitoring Waterbird Nesting.
As part of the ongoing collaboration between the Libyan Society for Birds and the Alhaya Organization for the Protection of Wildlife and Marine Life, the Life Organization conducted a field visit to Al-Barda’a Island on Friday, July 18, 2025, within the framework of its regular program for monitoring the status of migratory waterbirds.
The visit aimed to assess the nesting status of waterbirds on the island. Preliminary findings indicated the presence of only old nests of the European Shag, with no recent evidence of nesting activity by other species during this period. These data are important for tracking the behavior and changes of waterbird species, especially in light of the environmental challenges facing the Libyan coasts.
This visit underscores the importance of long-term field monitoring to better understand changes in site use by migratory birds, thereby contributing to the development of effective strategies for their protection and the conservation of their habitats.
In conclusion, the Libyan Society for Birds extends its sincere thanks and appreciation to the Alhaya Organization for the Protection of Wildlife and Marine Life for its valuable efforts and continued cooperation in the field of biodiversity conservation in Libya.
