: Bird-watching in the marshes
to bring you more about our bird watching activities in Turkey.
We are committed ourselves to preserve wild-life,
search bird species and understand their
natural habitat. We would also like to collaborate
with other environmentalist groups around the world.

These tours recently revealed some bird species and subgroups which were previously unknown.
One of our most favorite tours is to Kaçkar Mountains (+3000m) in the northeast,
Black Sea Region of Turkey. With its rainy climate, fresh water,
sources, lagoons and deep
green forests, Kachkar serves the best of the nature to the nature lovers, trackers and bird watchers.
