A Sunbirder in Honduras
Initiated by Weitblick, an NGO that organises and supports educational projects worldwide, Fabian spent several weeks in a little village in Honduras to combine is passion for both nature and education.
An enthusiastic ornithologist, Fabian set out on a mission to map the diverse bird species in the area and was fascinated by the vibrant plumage and melodic calls of the native avian inhabitants.
A passionate teacher as well he not only got them excited in the topic by classroom teaching, but also by the power of hands-on experiences organising bird-watching expeditions. Equipped with binoculars and cameras and the participants learnt to identify various species and understand their critical role in the ecosystem on captivating excursions.
