Would you like to celebrate the International Day for Biological Diversity with us? 
 
This is a good opportunity to gather and discuss the importance of protecting the biological diversity of islands. For this occasion, BirdLife Malta, Greenhouse Malta and Il-Majjistral Nature and History Park have teamed up to prepare an evening program for you. 
 
To start with, we will introduce you to our three organisations, talking about some key species in the park, including the breeding Yelkouan Shearwaters, orchids and bats around the park, to highlight the importance of having such areas protected in Malta.
 
After this, we propose you to go for a walk together at Majjistral around 19:30 to enjoy the sunset and learn more while watching and hearing the Yelkouans and bats. The walk will take approximately 45 minutes each way. 
 
Prepare your head torches (ideally with red light) and good footwear! See you on Wednesday 🙂
