Twice per week, one or more of the EVS volunteers went to the building of the 3rd<\/sup> and 8th<\/sup> primary schools of Vrontados.<\/p>\n

There they have a ‘Zoo’ with different species of birds for the local children to see. The kinds of birds include different chickens, pheasants, a peacock, special pidgeons and many more.<\/p>\n

Our task was to clean the water buckets and to refill the water and food for the birds.<\/p>\n

The peacock for example even gets his own special kind of food.<\/p>\n

If the birds were very active, we sometimes also evened out the ground in their cages again, because some of them like to dig holes.<\/p>\n

More often than not we could also find some eggs, but we usually left them in the cage for the birds to breed them.<\/p>\n

One of our recent tries has been a success, and now we have new baby birds.<\/p>\n
