Distribution and status of owls in Jordan
Project Details
| Name | Distribution and status of owls in Jordan |
| Description | The first national survey of owls was carried by JBW; results are published in the journal Sandgrouse. Knowledge about the distribution of rare and sensitive species is crucial for nature conservation. JBW is contributing to this knowledge through surveys and monitoring. This project was made possible through the help of volunteers working in the field, and financial support by OSME to cover transport costs. |
