Im Mai füllt sich Langeoog mit Zugvögeln. Sie haben gewaltige Strecken zurückgelegt, nun rasten oder brüten sie hier. Rohrweihe und Rauchschwalbe, Knutt und Kiebitz erbringen zwischen Afrika und Arktis Extremleistungen, so vielfältig wie die Vögel selber. Meisterhaft nutzen sie den Wind auf ihren Reisen. Kommt ihnen die Windkraft dabei in die Quere?

The activity that we will perform is in a National Park in Colombia (PARQUE NACIONAL NEVADO DEL HUILA). In the indigenous communities the provided material will support learning activities and underpin the importance of the park's ecosystem and habitat of present migratory species. It will help to understand the patterns of migration and shaping records based on observations on field trips to areas of forests. We will conduct workshops, birdwatching, drawing birds and recordings of bird songs.

Mongolian Ornithological Society in collaboration with Mongolica Co.Ltd is going to celebrate the event for the fourth time in Mongolia. This year the purpose of the event is to raise public awareness of migratory birds and their conservation actions.

On the day of 9th May, 2015 the best hand drawings and sculptures from the contest will be put on exhibition.
