During his visit to Vallcalent, Simon worked closely with two resident Bearded Vultures, BG973 and BG1010. These birds, a brother-sister pair unable to fly due to a genetic defect in their feathers, are housed in the education area of the centre, away from the breeding pairs. Their condition makes them ideal candidates for controlled studies without disturbing Vallcalent&#8217;s active breeding season.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Insightful and non-Invasive experiments<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Simon exposed the birds to a series of visual stimuli displayed on screens while meticulously observing and recording their reactions. He also performed detailed examinations of their eyes, gathering valuable data to inform the development of more effective collision mitigation measures. Importantly, these experiments were non-invasive and did not harm the birds, causing no more stress than routine veterinary check-ups. Ensuring the birds\u2019 welfare remains a top priority in all aspects of the research.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image aligncenter uagb-block-ad116e3c wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-center\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/4vultures.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-10-22-at-12.26.40-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-39245\" width=\"377\" height=\"503\" title=\"WhatsApp Image 2024-10-22 at 12.26.40\" role=\"img\" \/><figcaption class=\"uagb-image-caption\">BG973 participates in one of the experiments, offering valuable insights into the vision of Bearded Vultures. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Optimizing the lighting at Vallcalent<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond his experiments, Simon also contributed to improving the conditions at the Vallcalent centre. He gave an insightful talk to the staff, sharing expertise on optimizing artificial lighting conditions. His advice will enhance environments where chicks are hand-reared and areas where artificial light plays a role, such as the infirmary.
