ADU Roadshow

"From volunteers to conservation - projects of the Avian Demography Unit"

6 - 20 September 2002

Doug Harebottle (CWAC, BIRP and NERCS coordinator) and Dieter Oschadleus (SAFRING coordinator) will be undertaking a two week ADU roadshow and will be meeting with the following clubs/organisations during their travels. They will promote and provide valuable feedback about ADU projects with a large focus of the roadshow being dedicated to bird-ringing. To enable this activity to be promoted more widely amongst birders and bird clubs, a bird ringing demonstration will be conducted at a local site the morning after the club meeting. Details about the ringing venue and starting times will be announced at the club meeting.

All ADU project participants and interested persons are invited to attend the evening presentations and/or bird ringing demonstrations. For more information you can contact the relevant contact person below or you can contact Doug or Dieter en route at 083 285 6889.
