Dear Visitor,
The aims of this website are multiple: First of all it is addressed to the ornithologist, with an interest in Egyptian avifaunal records, but it is also for the amateur and beginner birders, who are "birding" for their own amusement, far and wide through the endless Egyptian deserts.
One of my main goals is to promote interest and knowledge of this amazing piece of Earth, and try to widen our knowledge about its avifauna and to move forward all biodiversity conservation efforts.
Another important goal is to connect the researchers by our mailing list (whether native, resident foreigners, or traveling birders) and to provide an accessible list of the governmental and non-governmental institutions in Egypt that have any involvement in environmental affairs, and can be of interest or help for the researchers.
"Birding in Egypt" wants to be a unifying place for those who are not motivated just by personal interests, but who wish to share their knowledge with anyone else interested in ornithology and nature conservation in Egypt.
We are open to cooperation in any environmental conservation projects in Egypt, and we are glad to accept any help in our ongoing projects (volunteers, donations, etc).
In order to join our community and exchange news, share and gain information, please join the EgyBirdGroup mailing list. Along with our discussion group, a few other reputable mailing lists from North Africa and the Middle East can be joined also with just one click.
"Birding in Egypt" is an associate of Nature Conservation Egypt (NCE), the most active Egyptian non-governmental organization. NCE is a Birdlife International affiliate.
In order to be able to cover the maintenance costs of this web page and for the funding of different research and conservation projects, we are organizing twice a year a birding trip around Egypt. The trips are organized in cooperation with Green Eye Ecotours. Booking a trip, you will become a precious contributor to our conservation and bird migration research effort.
Truly yours,
István "Steve" Moldován
