Important update! Unfortunately, we have to cancel our activities at Besh Barmag for autumn 2025. We could not find proper accommodation near the counting station, but hope to find a solution for autumn 2026. We are still busy behind the scenes and will keep you updated about future activities.
Exciting update on the Besh Barmag Bird Migration Count! We have some important news to share about this year’s Besh Barmag Bird Migration Count. While we won’t be running a full-season, long-duration autumn count in 2025 due to limited resources and a smaller team, we’re thrilled to announce an exciting alternative! This year, we are planning a focused two-week bird migration count during the absolute highlight of the season — from the end of October to the beginning of November! This is the prime time to witness the spectacular migration of thousands of Little Bustards passing through the famous bottleneck, along with many other incredible species. We can’t wait to bring together bird lovers and migration enthusiasts for this unforgettable experience. Stay tuned — more details are coming soon!
