Behind the scenes of the LIFE PowerLines4Birds project

The LIFE PowerLines4birds project aims to reduce the impact of power lines on several bird species (Egyptian vulture, Iberian imperial eagle, Black vulture, Great bustard, Little bustard, Montagu's harrier and European rollers) that are vulnerable to this threat or endangered in Portugal and Spain. In order to disseminate the importance of the work carried out for the conservation of the seven target species and the mitigation of the threat posed by power lines, a video is being produced by Lenga Lenga Filmes.

With filming in full swing, the team is documenting exclusive interviews with project partners committed to the conservation of the target species through various actions such as the correction and monitoring of power lines, the placement of nesting boxes for rollers on supports protected against electrocution, and also training sessions and citizen science involvement through mobile applications developed in Portugal and Spain.
