A Hungarian shorebird conservationist, writer, and lifelong birder working to connect science, fieldwork, and storytelling. Founder of the Hopp Ferenc Bird Ringing Station in Hungary, The Ornithologist, World Shorebirds Day, and PatchBird Surveys.
Following the sudden loss of Dr. Shiloh Schulte, we honour his legacy through the work he helped lead in Arctic Alaska. This four-year survey of breeding shorebirds in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge reflects his deep commitment to science, fieldwork, and the fragile birds he championed.
