A Special Protection Area (SPA) is a designated region aimed at conserving specific bird species and their habitats. These areas are established under the European Union's Birds Directive, which seeks to protect vulnerable and migratory birds across Europe. SPAs provide essential breeding, feeding, and resting sites for these birds, ensuring their survival and promoting biodiversity. In addition to birds, SPAs often support a variety of other wildlife and plant species. Conservation efforts in these areas may include habitat restoration, monitoring of bird populations, and regulations to limit human activities that could harm the environment. This helps maintain ecological balance and supports the overall health of ecosystems.
