The conservation of steppe birds is one of the priorities of LPN – League for the Protection of Nature. Lesser Kestrel or Kestrel (Falco naumanni) is one of the most outstanding species of this group of birds, due to its threat status. The project has been developed in particular at the Vale Gonçalinho Environmental Education Center, in Castro Verde, owned by LPN.
