Ognjenka and Vid in the satellite telemetry program

10/01/2021 by admin

From 29.07.2020. year, we follow a young female Short Toed-Eagle, OGNJENKA, who was hatched in the Vršac mountains.

After leaving the nest, Ognjenka spent some time in the area, and on 27.09.2020. embarked on an autumn migration and descended all the way to Sudan, covering a total of 6765 km in 28 days. She spent the winter in Sudan and Chad, and on 1.5.2021. headed north. As this is a young individual who still has no urge to return to the place where she hatched, she spent the spring and summer of this year in Turkey, and then returned to Chad, where she is now.

31.07.2021 another young Short-Toed Eagle is involved in the satellite telemetry program. It is a male named VID, who also hatched in the Vršac Mountains. The action was carried out by the Birds of Prey Protection Foundation in cooperation with the Nature Association “GEA” from Vrsac, and the manager of PIO “Vrsacke planine” and the Institute for Biological Research “Sinisa Stankovic”, an Institute of national importance for the Republic of Serbia at the University of Belgrade.

Vid started moving in 11 days earlier than in Ognjenka, on 18.09.2021.and he is now moving towards sub-Saharan Africa. He successfully flew over Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, crossed the Suez Canal and is now descending to the south, following the Nile.

XVII Competition for the best photo of 2021 – “Birds in action!”

09/25/2021 by admin

As in previous years, the Birds of Prey Protection Foundation organized the Best Photography Competition: “The Birds in Action” under the auspices of the “Photo Association of Serbia”.

The best photographs from the previous competitions are on the posters and calendar of the Foundation, showing all the beauty of diversity and at the same time calling for the protection of endangered species in Serbia. Our goal is also to popularize the author’s photo inspired by birds, but also to point out the bad status of endangered species and natural habitats in Serbia.

Everybody can participate in it, regardless of residence and whether they are dealing with photography professionally or amateurly. According to the competition rules, one participant can send up to four (4) photographs. Only wild bird photos – recorded exclusively in nature, come into consideration. Photos from ZOOs or birds from captivity will be excluded. The photos can be black and white or in color or in digital form. The photo format is “JPG”, at least 1920 pixels in length on a longer page format, at a resolution of 300 dpi.

Each group of photos should also follow the information and “Application Form” about the author (name, surname, address, contact telephone and e-mail) and the work (name, where and when the photo was taken). The name of the photo and the serial number must be in accordance with the “Application form”, and by signing the Application, the author declares that all the photos are his. Application-Form 2021

With strict compliance with copyright law photos participating in the Competition, the Birds of Prey Protection Foundation will use to achieve their goals – the protection of endangered species, unless the author requires otherwise. The submission of photographs to third parties is possible only with the agreement with the author!

The deadline for the reception of this year’s works is November 1, 2021. After that the expert jury will review the works and choose the best photographs. It will notify interested parties about their final decision no later than November 10, 2021, through the Foundation website and Facebook page. The winners will be notified by e-mail about that, as well as awards.

The Birds of Prey Protection Foundation will also organize an Exhibition of the best photographs from 10th to 17nd of December 2021, (Cultural Center “Vlado DIvljan”, st. Mitropolita Petra br. 8, Belgrade)and we will let you know about the place and time later. The Exhibition will be accompanied by a Catalog of selected works on the 18th calendar of the Foundation for 2021, which will include catalog data and will be delivered to photo authors either at the exhibition itself or by the end of 2020. The exhibition will also include the promotion of posters with award-winning photography from the competition.

The day on which this event will be marked is determined every first Saturday in September.

The Birds of Prey Protection Foundation has traditionally marked this event for 12 years, in cooperation with many organizations and in the presence of our members and friends.

Ognjenka started the spring migration!

05/06/2021 by admin

On the 1.5.2021. the Ognjenka female Short-Toed Eagle, who is in the program of our satellite telemetry has started the spring migration. She left Chad, flew to Sudan and Egypt. In 5 days, she flew to the Nile River and we assume that will continue to move along the river to the north.

Since this is a young bird that is still sexually immature and does not have a strong urge to return to the area where she hatched, we do not know what decisions she will make next. We continue to follow her on her uncertain path.
