This year, we carried out an extensive avifauna study led by a certified ornithologist to better understand and preserve the rich biodiversity of our course.

Through systematic field surveys conducted across multiple habitats and times of day, the study identified 70 bird species from 38 families, with a total of 4,209 individual birds recorded. These findings confirm that the course serves as an important ecological corridor within the local landscape, supporting both resident and migratory species.

The data collected will guide future habitat-management decisions, helping us enhance nesting areas, protect key feeding zones, and improve the overall ecological value of the course. This initiative reflects our commitment to evidence-based conservation and to maintaining a healthy, diverse natural environment for wildlife and the community.
