Kojak and I started the day off at Cape Kaliakra before heading over to the project plot at Kamen Bryag to meet Dylan, Anton, Stoyan and Dobbie. We transported the pond liner to the plot and then the boys got on with doing the hay cut in the meadow and weeding the pond scrape while Kojak and I did the decent thing and carried on birding. 62 species at Cape Kaliakra, Ebird list
HERE, highlights including 3 male Sardinian Warblers, over 30 Black Redstarts, Honey Buzzard, Osprey, a late Hoopoe and some decent vis-mig. 53 species at Kamen Bryag and highlights there included Grey-headed Woodpecker, another 10 Black Redstarts and some impressive Chaffinch and White Wagtail passage, Ebird list
