The pupils of the school of Roura, in French Guiana, on the track of the Agami Heron !
After having learnt about Agami Herons, thanks to a class given by Anna Stier, the GEPOG Project Leader, the CP/CE1 pupils from the eco-school of Roura have given names to three of the five herons that were fitted with Argos transmitters in the Kawi marshes in April 2013. The two males are called ’Blue Sparrow’ and ’Kanapaich’, and the female is ’Excalibur’.
