Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University added a new one to its social contribution mission efforts. Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University Wildlife Protection, Rehabilitation Application and Research Center, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry 4th Regional Directorate and Fethiye Science and Art Center, organized an event due to the Environment Workshop.

In the bird watching event organized at Fethiye's Çalış Bird Paradise, Bilsem students were given fieldwork training on the use of equipment such as binoculars, telescopes, and cameras used for bird watching by Center Director Dr. Lecturer Yasemin Özdemir. Özdemir emphasized that environmental and bird watching awareness plays an important role in the process of discovering nature and gaining environmental sensitivity for 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students, stating that children in this age group learn to pay more attention to their environment by observing natural life, thus contributing to the protection of nature and the maintenance of the health of bird species' habitats.

During the event, which attracted great interest from Fethiye Bilsem students and their parents, species such as Cormorant, Mallard, Silver Gull, Kingfisher, and Little Egret were observed very closely during the bird watching at Çalış Bird Paradise.
