7:32 am
old phrase, which is tons gum keep is well get you're buying the killers out and take a look, oh wow. well, well, yeah who? this is the story of an experiment. the main subjects are endangered birds at lake bar last in northern egypt. and on the human side of bird hunter who like to stop. if he had another way to feed his family. and an environmental list with a new idea dive and we work with small tour agencies that are based in the area plus a 2 or 3 to who's up for challenge. look into why we didn't have any guide books that i knew nothing about the birds without getting into us from egypt who are paying a lot to see the birds. will it be worth it? the old trying something that's brand new to them.
7:33 am
especially the bird hunter, ebony falls, he heads out onto the water sola abilities, chicks who smith in lake wireless history because to use fake ducks to encourage real migratory birds, passing through like ducks to join them. the monkey was about to meet his duck call serves the same purpose. but the only sometimes work came back recordings of real called is a more reliable way to attract them. this makes it is illegal, but the state doesn't prosecute hunters like him. in fact, there are thousands of them the next morning, some of the seas discovers that he didn't catch any ducks during the night. but he did catch 3 nights parents who sells them to private buyers and restaurants. the
7:34 am
bird hunter has no other source of income and a family of 5 to feed. but this is becoming more difficult because the animals he prefers to catch are declining in number. yeah, my son is the clock might include $200.00 ducks. now it may only be 50 if it comes to have a permit lake, but the noise is more than 460 square meters in size and is located in a densely populated area. today is a 1st, a bird watching to a more than a 100 bird species. it can be observed at the lake. now that the endangered locals are starting to understand the value of seeing them and even things to do. so it, so you need hire you. i never saw that i would travel such a way just to watch,
7:35 am
but part of the organizers were insure it is enough. people would book the tour and there are lots of details to work out front of the election. we can't organize bridge watching, fixing up binoculars because the birds are too far away and you need binoculars to see them. the, the binoculars are not so easy to come by egypt, environmental organization, nature conservation, egypt provides them. it was bad idea to launch the 3rd watching to a together with local to operate has had been out of hamilton, farms were supporting and training them and how inside we'll try to help them make these trips and we'll stay there until they no longer need us i'm afraid that when they've managed to get access to the tourism market for each bird watchers and build connections with the hunters and we will continue with your permission. then we're going to sadly fill a very few bird watching guides each other and certainly not like bird hunter,
7:36 am
sla optimised ease for his work as a guide on the trial day. she received an estimate of earnings, but he lost from the country. and then the magic happens, threats come right up to the group. resting on fishing. it's the reply, crowds, night parents and square coherence on the way from your to asia. the it's also a moment for some of tennessee's is a bird hunter. she can now she's knowledge of the birds and the rest of the book, the more expensive the for region is next one of the rarest and most beautiful. i the, the ex, expensive. yes. but they don't, they exceed the minutes why i've been the if we focus more on bird watching tourism, there can be many benefits in terms of jobs. and the places we're trying to protect in the hands of people understand that these birds in these places they can earn
7:37 am
the money and then they'll protect them because they'll be profiting from them directly. because i believe in that, like some of the to upgrade to is happy, but he's already thinking long term follow up on with different organize a trip and it's successful about the people who come, we'll bring more people next time and then well not so many people are interested in lake burleson. now as the tours will make that number grove underneath the magistrate burdened to update the seas, can be proud of his 1st day as a bird watching guide the tourist quite impressed with his knowledge. i know have you been like the 2 people? so how can i give it to me that you mentioned the thing i liked most was having a guides that could tell you about the bird species around us, some auto body. and you gave us some background information about the different areas and i'm opening up. they also explained how bird migration works and not to do it with a client with the holiday. despite his success as a guide. so lot of tennessee's will continue to hunt birds for the time being it will take time to create a real change here. i live in this,
7:38 am
but otherwise one individual know that i'm in my it's of a home does the same that would make a big difference in how you would pay of difficulty. you'll get quite slow. yeah. this a lot of tennessee's has caught a king feature magnificent specimens to release a super lucky king. so she's not on the menu around here. hug the notice that groceries has become a lot more expensive. recently, climate change, the war in ukraine and the know on effects of the coal. we've 19 fund demik, r o contributing to escalating food prices. yeah, some people find you, they difficult to afford fruits and vegetables. so what about growing your own? it's not only good for you, it's also good for the environment we had to, john is burg installed to offer to, to check out a pioneer in evon gardening project, a missile

7:45 am
it's pretty quiet and nowadays, but not so long ago. this area was positive. the bustling coal mining industry on the, on the take out chip had a good fall bond. astoundingly few traces remain of that era. thanks to the efforts of noise, biggest of the re not to ration project. because of is it trying to make, let the nature take it back or in, make the nature itself. that means let's creeks run freely. let the make sure that avalanches do happen, because that will transport more the on the settlements down, it will make new creeks. it was over a 100 years ago in 1917. the the swedish company opened the fast mine here it was late. it's taking over by no waste state and coal mining company stores and oscar. while as the rest go,
