Activities and workshops
The bird that has lost it's memory
An activity for discovering the world of birds
An audio-visual presentation tells us the story of a bird that has lost its memory. Laura asks us for help because she is sad that the bird will never see its family or friends again. She doesn’t know what the bird is called, what it eats, where it lives… Between us, we will try to give her the answers to all these questions!
Census of birds
Identifying and counting waterfowl
In order to find out how the various species of birds in MónNatura Delta de l'Ebre are doing, censuses are carried out periodically from the 360º Gallery. In this workshop, we will be responsible for assessing the number and variety of the waterfowl observed. This activity will give us insights into the main characteristics of the birds on the Delta.
