News updates
November 2005
Manolo has recently contributed to a study
of Cranes by the Swedish naturalist Göran Lundin. The book is
called
"Cranes-where, when and why?" Svärd & Söner,
Falköping
Available in English from a German language Crane
website
Thursday 1st December
Manolo was interviewed for the TV channel TELE5 on the Cranes. Although Spain is not as enthusiastic about birds as we are in the UK, there is nevertheless a regular flow of news clips about significant bird events. Another of Manolo's clips is regularly on RTVE (main national TV cannel) and on TVE Internacional, accessible in the UK if you have a satellite dish. We have some pictures from this interview.
Friday 2nd December
The Swedish Ambassador and a journalist from the Swedish National Television company came to the launch of the book in Mérida. As the foremost authority on Cranes in Extremadura, Manolo was interviewed for the news programme (accessible online over the following week at www.sr.se/p1/naturmorgon )
