Echo’s Annual Lora Roost Count

Echo is hosting its annual roost count on Saturday 28^th January 2023 of the Yellow-shouldered Amazon Parrot, or Lora as it is known locally. The Roost count is a yearly event where volunteers from across the island visit known roost sites (places where groups of Lora sleep) and count the individuals to help estimate the population size on the island. By knowing approximately how many parrots are on the island Echo can determine how the population is doing and then better implement conservation action. If you would like to participate in Echo’s annual roost count event then please email Echo at Echobonaire@gmail.com to sign up.
