#photonotbullet SPNL photo campaign to promote responsible hunting

To promote responsible hunting, we’re asking you to get out into nature, and take a photo of a video of a Bird instead of shooting it, because spring is the typical mating season for most bird species. Hunting is prohibited and illegal during this period.
Feel free to use a smartphone or any other photo device – you don’t have to use professional equipment!
Responsible Hunters and Bird Watchers from all over Lebanon will be invited to join the exhibition that will display their pictures. A prize will be awarded to the best 3 photos.
The SPNL EXHIBITION will take place on August 2017 at West Bekaa Country Club.

Once you have shoot your photo, all you have to do is:
1.Upload your photo to Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram
2. In the text of your post, include
– where you shoot the photo
– the bird common name (if you know it)
– the hashtag #photonotbullet
If you’re using Twitter, please tag @SpnlOrg E.g.: “A pair of Common mynas, April 2017, American university of Beirut, Lebanon #photonotbullet @SpnlOrg”
3.Post any time before 21 June 2017!

Al Hima Magazine 5th Issue

This edition of Al Hima magazine weaves together inspiring stories of nature conservation and community resilience, highlighting how Lebanon is being stitched back to life—one Hima at a time. The Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon (SPNL) continues its mission to preserve the country’s natural heritage by empowering local communities. A cornerstone of this effort is the BioConnect project, funded by the European Union, which has achieved three national firsts: Lebanon’s first natural park (Upper Matn), first geological park (Shouf-Jezzine), and first endowment Hima (Btekhnay).
