If you are a vulture fan that wants to spend a day observing Bearded Vultures while helping conservation efforts that favour the species, we have the perfect event for you<\/a>! The International Observation Days (IOD) for Bearded Vultures<\/a> will once again bring together hundreds of volunteers and experts for the 16th consecutive year in a row to search the skies for Europe’s rarest vulture. We ask vulture fans to join us to help us estimate the population of the species in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get Involved<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The IOD is an ambitious conservation initiative that cannot be achieved without the help of the public! The observation points cover seven countries in the following regions: the Alps, the Massif Central in France, Aude in the French Pyrenees, Andalusia in Spain and Bulgaria. This year\u2019s simultaneous count is on Saturday, 2 October 2021 (in case of bad weather, the focus day will be postponed to Saturday, 9 October). We are inviting people to get involved, pick up a pair of binoculars, spend the day in the mountains, help us look for Bearded Vultures and get counting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through our network of organizations and IBM partners, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved. Please contact the regional coordinators below if you are interested in participating or contact us for any other questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
