Saturday, 28 January Lora Counting
Wednesday, 25th of January, 2017 Information and Training Evening
Every year the department of Environment and Nature of the Public Body Bonaire (OLB) , Echo and STINAPA work together to organize the counting of the yellow shoulder amazon parrot(Lora) on the island
This is a challenge which attracts volunteers whom observe parrots fly away before dawn. Conducting the count in this manner yields a minimum estimate of the Lora population on the island. Because it is done this way every year since 2005, we know that the amount of parrots increases.
Can you help at the Annual Lora Counting or do you know Lora resting places?
