World Migratory Bird Day! 🕊 #worldmigratorybirdday #nature #environment #environmentalist #birdsofinstagram #mydubai #uae #Repost @moccaeuae with @repostapp ・・・ . ‏DYK that World Migratory Bird Day was initiated in 2006? It is an annual awareness-raising campaign highlighting the need for the conservation of #MigratoryBirds and their habitats. #WorldMigratoryBirdDay was initiated by the Secretariat of the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) in collaboration with the Secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS). The #UAE protects migratory birds, which is considered as an essential part of our efforts to conserve the global #biodiversity and its commitment to work together with the international community to cope with the natural and anthropogenic pressure on wildlife. #MoCCAE continuously develops legislations and policies aiming to the conservation of biodiversity, including increasing the penalties for illegal hunting of birds and terrestrial and marine animals and combating illegal wildlife trafficking. #WMBD2017
