As BirdLife International partners for Lebanon, the Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon (SPNL) is still at the very early stages of developing the Important Bird Areas survey and book. As in any third world country, the main constraint to working on nature conservation is financial. They are looking for volunteer experienced bird watchers for conducting the survey. They would also appreciate any donations of bird watching equipment (such as binoculars and telescopes) to allow them to equip some of our partners in the country. Contact Mireille Atallah-Augé, Project Development Officer, SPNL, for more information. |
