Dipper (Cinclus) and Tengmalm's owl (Aegolius funereus) protection in the Middle Sudety Mountain
Regulation of mountain streams and rivers caused a strong decline of population of dipper (Cinclus cinclus) and similiar decline of Tengmalm's owl ( Aegolius funereus) is caused by the lack of old forest stand with old dry trees with holes. Pproject aims in i stabilisation and then increase of two kinds of mountain birds Cinclus and Aegolius funereus population by installation of artificial, designed by experts hatch boxes-300.This method proved to be succesful behind the border, in Czech Republic. Close cooperation with local communities in project implementation and monitoring is a key element for succes so trainings/workshops will be organised.Brochure with information about these birds and methods of protection will be published, with extra information about GEF/SGP.
