Greetings Interested Volunteers,
Raptor Watch (RW) 2019 falls on the dates 9-10th March 2019. It will be in our usual event place in Tanjung Tuan (Cape Rachado), Melaka. We will be doing interpretive walks while guiding guests through coastal forest remnant of the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia whilst wishing the migratory birds on their Spring migration a safe journey to reach their home country in the Northern Hemisphere and make many baby birds.
Briefing will be on:
| Date | : | 23rd February 2019 |
| Time | : | 8:30am – 12:00pm followed by lunch. |
| Location | : | Tanjung Tuan, Melaka |
| Meeting point | : | Opposite entrance of PNB Ilham |
We are currently on a look out for 60 volunteers on Saturday and 30 for Sunday. It is preferably that the volunteers are MNS members. Non-members are also welcome to volunteer as well but are not covered by insurance.
What is confirmed to be provided at this point of time (12/11/18):
1) Car Pool suggestions for 23rd February.
2) Lunch on 9th March.
3) Accommodation on 9th March for those who are staying back to volunteer on Sunday.
4) Snacks and drinking water during both event days.
5) Certificates
Updates will be sent periodically as they are confirmed.
If you are able to spare some time to volunteer, please fill up this registration form: https://goo.gl/forms/Ri1llt49QCqx0HzD2 by noon, 13th January 2019 so that we will have some time to ensure certain logistics are in place especially on accommodation because unlike FOW where the dorms are in KSNP, we need to make bookings with bungalow owners/hotels and trying to look for places within walking distance.
Rough Schedule that we know of at the moment:
9/3 – Full day – SIG activities, birding, forest/beach walks etc.
10/3 – Half day – SIG activities, birding, forest/beach walks etc.
