In the current context of erosion of biodiversity, in order to ensure appropriate management and effective protection of migratory species, it is necessary to develop knowledge of migratory phenomena. For decades, researchers have been working on it and among the very useful and used techniques: individual tagging of birds.

Here you will find some images taken during capture and ringing operations of migratory birds.

It is this fieldwork that is at the root of the understanding of bird migration. They are professionals and enthusiasts who give their time and energy to the service of knowledge and the preservation of birdlife.

Our photographer Pierre-Lou wishes to share with you these moments among the birds.
