Without doubt, it is "a good opportunity to make known to the public the exciting world of birds, as they are also indicative of the conservation of natural areas that we have", as stated Councilman Environment, David Fernandez.
On Saturday October 1 from 9 am to 1 pm, will be installed in the Plaza del Convento de Mazarrón a stand where there will be a falconry shows that "like both young and old, as we will have the presence of 12 birds of different species so that citizens can take pictures with them, as we see them fly through the weekly market, "said the president of the association" Friends of Nature ", Rafael Peral.
In addition, children who come to the stand will be presented with posters, stickers and leaflets that have been sent by the federation green "SEO / Birdlife."
On Sunday, October 2, there is prepared a hiking route to visit the wetlands of the Rambla of the mulberry trees.
As the mayor pointed out the Environment, "the species that live in the town, some in danger of extinction like the white-headed duck, are directly or indirectly with these wetlands," hence its importance.
The hiking club "Friends of Nature" will start at 8 thirty in the morning from the flag of the Aceña with the goal of "photo-hunt as many birds as possible."
These activities are free and they are called to share all residents and visitors.
In Spain, the theme chosen this year to celebrate this day is the illegal hunting of migratory birds, because "SEO / BirdLife" believes that we can not tolerate the continued implementation modalities such as illegal hunting parany in regions such as Valencia, Catalonia Aragon.
The parany or shed is basically catching birds when they land in trees impregnated with glue trap or league, preventing the flight, then kill them by crushing their skulls with their fingers.
This form of hunting is banned by the Spanish and European laws.
Therefore, the theme of this edition is "born to fly free."
Additionally, in this line of conservation and environmental preservation, the City of Mazarrón and "Friends of Nature" are urging extreme caution drivers on the road this summer as they have appeared on the track hit a high between the number of animals that have had 4 riders, 1 bobcat and a badger.
The municipality is studying the possibility to indicate to drivers through various signs, the presence of these animals to avoid as many potential abuses.
