2019 Highlights

 It's been a while since my last post and I once again have the motivation to catch up with my blogging.

There were many new bird ringing experiences for the past two years, but to be able to catch up, I'll make highlight posts for 2019 and 2020. And hopefully, I'll be able to make regular posts this year.

The most important news is that in 2019 we've started a bird ringing camp at the Durankulak late (NE Bulgaria). The first two seasons of the camp proved to be very successful in terms of interesting species,  total ringed birds, and new volunteers.

I'll make a more detailed post about the camp, but if you want to learn more, check out the Facebook page of the Durankulak Bird Ringing Camp.

In 2019 we've managed to ring more than 9000 birds at the camp!

Also in 2019, I've managed to make a good amount of nestboxes and made some ringing of hatchlings in them. 

Check out the highlight photos from 2019:
