Bulgaria Spring 2023 Day One

Arrived this afternoon with some time to do some local birding around Kamen Bryag. Ebird list here. I had an incredible 68 Turtle Dove on the road between Balgrevo and Kamen Bryag. 

Amazing to see Whiskered Terns flying low over our plot in a fairly strong northerly wind. 

The wind must be holding up the passerines as not too much about. 

It's great to be back.

Pied Flycatcher
Woodchat Shrike
Corn Bunting
Little Owl
View along the Black Sea coast over Varna looking north 
Despite the cold strong northerly it was delightful walking along the King's Spear covered steppe/karst cliff line
Before (above) and after (below) shots of the work we are doing on our meadow- come out alright
