Join us at Għadira Nature Reserve as we celebrate World Wetlands Day and the end of hunting season. Be a part of the exciting release of rehabilitated birds back into the wild! Wetlands play a vital role in supporting biodiversity, purifying water, and controlling floods while providing habitats for plants and animals. They are essential to maintaining natural cycles and supporting local livelihoods. This open day will offer you the chance to explore these unique ecosystems, learn about their importance, and take part in fun and educational activities for the whole family!
The day will include:
Bird Release: Celebrate the end of the hunting season with us (31st January)! From 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM witness rehabilitated birds take flight back into their natural habitat. Please register in advance if you wish to participate.
New Birdwatching Hide: Experience our newly built, fully accessible birdwatching hide.
Family Activities: Test your skills at identifying birdcalls and wetland plants!
New Għadira Cartoon: Meet the characters of our new Għadira cartoon and try to spot them around the reserve.
Meet the Experts: Chat with our experienced BirdLife Malta staff and volunteers about wetlands and their vital importance.
This free event is perfect for families, nature enthusiasts, and anyone looking to enjoy a beautiful day outdoors while learning about wetlands. Don’t forget to bring your nature passport to collect your stamp for the chance to win a prize at the end of the year!
