PIERA BERETTA

Finalist in the 2021 Competition of the Swiss Ornithological Institute

4 October 2021

I am very pleased that my photo of a female kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) was chosen from nearly 9,500 photos as a finalist in this year's photo competition of the Swiss Ornithological Institute.

The Swiss Ornithological Institute "hope to inspire public interest in birds and raise awareness for their protection. Widespread understanding and appreciation of our native birdlife are key factors to the success of our efforts. The more people care about birds and enjoy watching them, the better our chances of implementing effective conservation measures for threatened species." I wholeheartedly agree with this goal and hope to make a small contribution to the protection of all wild animals with my photographs.
