We received almost a thousand drawings for the ’The blue bird of the puszta’ contest, organised within the framework of the Roller LIFE+ project. The 980 pieces of artwork included drawings, paintings and a handful of pieces by other techniques.

Contestants had almost 2 months to complete their works. We also received entries from across the border: from Serbia, Slovakia and Romania, showing how successful this project was.
The opening ceremony was attended by almost each awardee (Photo: Gerhárd Golen).
The members of the jury were the teachers of the Department of Environmental Science and Landscape Ecology of the Károly Eszterházy University, and colleagues of the Bükk Local Group of BirdLife Hungary (MME).
