White Stork

The Storks Have Migrated, but They Have Promised to Return

Since 2005 the American University of Armenia’s Hakobyan Ecological Center has conducted a research project entitled the “White Stork”. During these years some 1,017 white stork nests have been registered throughout different regions of Armenia.

Next to each nest a small plaque has been affixed that reads, “Under protection”. There are numerous stork nests in the regions of Ararat, Armavir, Shirak, Lori and Vayots Dzor.

Maro Kochinyan is a young research worker at the Hakobyan Center and coordinates the “White Stork” project.
