Danube Delta

Conservation project

The Romanian Ornithological Society is a small but active bird conservation society. Our contribution goes towards a group of young naturalists called Falco Cherrug (the saker), which is run by Eugen Petrescu, who is both one of the Ibis team – quite often a leader for Honeyguide groups – and the SOR representative in the delta.

One of Falco Cherrug's main activities is an annual ornithological camp. There are pictures of the camps in the Danube Delta, a page from the SOR's magazine Pasari in December 2009 here, and from 2010 here, part-funded by Honeyguide as usual.

If you have any old binoculars or field guides they will be gratefully received by Falco Cherrug, the young birdwatchers group run by Eugen Petrescu.
