That is why with the installation of these roof tiles distributed throughout the region of Osona, Bages and Baix Empord\u00e0 to owners or farmers of agricultural properties, will serve as an ideal shelter for couples of owls. The intention is to install one or two tiles per agricultural farm, reaching at least 50 different farms and therefore, a total of 80 tiles installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The roof tile is an idea born in the Grup d&#8217;anelladors Calldetenes &#8211; Osona (Calldetenes \u2013 Osona) Ringing Group, tested and improved by the Grup de Naturalistes d&#8217;Osona &#8211; ICHN (Osona Naturalists Group \u2013 ICHN). Previously, different clay models were created manually and individually to test their effectiveness in the municipality of Torell\u00f3 and Matar\u00f3, thus demonstrating a successful occupation over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, and with the intention of continuing to build and install tiles in a more agile way, with the Grup Natura Sterna (Sterna Nature Group) the possibility has arisen of finding a professional clay craftsman &#8211; who are increasingly scarce &#8211; who can make a mold of backpack tile. Thanks to the work of the previous entities, it has been possible to contact Josep Mat\u00e9s, an artisan already involved in various environmental and social issues who has a traditional wood oven ideal for creating the mold, construction and firing of a batch of these tiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the economical aid provided by the sale of tickets to the Delta Birding Festival, the creation of this mold and the production of 80 roof tiles will be financed. That is why we are looking forward to a large attendance at the festival so that these shelters can be installed in different agricultural properties suitable for the reproduction of the little owl and that they can house many new generations of this species!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<figure class=\"old-block-image\">\n\t    <img decoding=\"async\" \n\t            class=\"lazy lazyload\" \n\t            data-mobilesrc=\"https:\/\/deltabirdingfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/imatges-teula-mussolera1-320x213.webp\" \n\t            data-src=\"https:\/\/deltabirdingfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/imatges-teula-mussolera1.webp\" \n\t            alt=\"imatges-teula-mussolera1\" \n\t            src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAAARnQU1BAACxjwv8YQUAAAAJcEhZcwAADsQAAA7EAZUrDhsAAAANSURBVBhXYzh8+PB\/AAffA0nNPuCLAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\">\n\t   <\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Delta Birding Festival&#8217;s 10th edition will allocate the profit obtained from the sale of tickets to the project &#8220;Apadrina una Teula Mussolera&#8221; which translates into &#8220;Sponsor a Little Owl Roof Tile&#8221;, a proposal to improve the breeding points of the little owl (Athene noctua) .
