14 Sep 2018 #BiodiversityManifesto – Recovery of quarry area

Posted at 10:37h in Nature Conservation by

Two hunters together with the Nuova Demi quarry company owner undertook to restore a wetland situated between the Brembo and Adda rivers, on a migration axis. After years of work, the site hosts now 65 ha of wetland of rare beauty and biodiversity and welcomes a huge amount of birds such as Ferruginous duck (Aythya nyroca), Tufted duck (Aythya fuligula) and Common pochard (Aythya ferina). The site has proved very welcoming for diving ducks that spend the winter there.
