Members of
the Society have participated in and helped complete total of 3 courses and a professional
seminar, General Ornithology (for undergraduate students), Applied
Ornithology (for M.Sc. students) and Bird Ecology and Behaviors (for M.Sc.
students) on Ornithology at the Laboratory.
Approximately
500 bird specimens were collected and cataloged at the Ornithological
Laboratory in collaboration with Society members in the last decade.
Members of the Society and Laboratory have collected more than 200 passerine
bird feathers since 1990. These materials are significant
in training student for bird identification. The feather collection
is also a fundamental material for bird species identification from prey
remains and pellet analyzes of birds of prey such as Saker falcon, Upland Buzzard
and Eagle Owls. |
