Joël Savry, president of the Pie Verte Bio 77 association, is enthusiastic: “This is good news for the biodiversity of Île-de-France! “. For the first time in a century, an osprey has been spotted as a nesting species of raptor in Seine-et-Marne. “We observe them every year but as a breeder it’s a first,” he rejoices. This means that they are breeding in the department. » The association specializing in the preservation of species, based in Donnemarie-Dontilly (Seine-et-Marne), identifies nests on the massifs of Villefermoy, Sourdun and Jouy-le-Châtel in the south of Seine-et-Marne .
Last year, members also noted the presence of a nesting booted eagle. This was a novelty on a regional scale. It was during a conference organized this month that its members revealed these two discoveries. In the same vein, the Marne river had more variety of fish in 2023 compared to 2022. Positive news as biodiversity is often threatened by urbanization in Île-de-France.
