Islands for Terns

Floating Nesting Islands for Endangered Bird Species

The main goal of the project is to support and restore the nesting grounds of a particularly protected and highly endangered bird species, the common tern (Sterna hirundo). We are installing 8 floating islands as supplementary nesting sites for common terns in the southern Moravia. The project is funded by EEA Norway Grants 2014–2021, via Programme “Environment, Ecosystems and Climate Change” of the State Environmental Fund of the Czech Republic and call “Rago – Pilot Projects and Innovative Solutions for Improving the State of the Ecosystems”.
