Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University Wildlife Conservation, Rehabilitation Application and Research Center, in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry 4th Regional Directorate and Fethiye Science and Art Center, organized an event through the Environment Workshop. During the bird observation event held at the Çalış Bird Paradise in Fethiye, Bilsem students were trained by the Center Director Dr. Yasemin Özdemir on the use of equipment such as binoculars, telescopes, and cameras used for bird observation. Özdemir emphasized the importance of environmental and bird observation awareness in the process of exploring nature and gaining sensitivity to the environment for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students, stating that children in this age group learn to pay more attention to their surroundings by observing natural life, thus contributing to the preservation of nature and the health of bird species' habitats. At the event, which attracted great interest from Fethiye Bilsem students and parents, species such as Cormorant, Green-headed, Silver gull, Kingfisher, and Little egret were closely observed during the bird observation at Çalış Bird Paradise. At the end of the event, a gift was presented to the center director Yasemin Özdemir, who was the executor of the event, by Fethiye Bilsem Science Consultant Sona Özlen.
