Speaker : Dr Yong Ding Li

Host : Hosted on Zoom by Gloria Seow (Education Committee) on behalf of NSS

Join Dr Yong Ding Li of Birdlife International in this webinar to learn about migratory birds using the East Asian-Australasian Flyway, in which Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia are a part of. What are the species that migrate through, and overwinter on the Malay Peninsula? Where are the main spots used by large congregations of migratory birds, such as raptors and landbirds, as they move through the Peninsula? How important are our wetlands and rainforests for migratory species? What are the threats that affect these migratory species, and how can we better deal with them? All these questions and more will be answered in this illuminating talk. The session will wrap with a Q&A segment.
