Guests from Europe, the Middle East and Central Asia will be arriving in Bulgaria on 3 and 4 October for the miracle of bird migration.

This is one of the biggest international events organized by the Bulgarian Society for the Protection of Birds (BSPB), in partnership with BirdLife International since 1993. Over these 26 years more than one million people have taken part in the event, watching more than 75 million birds. This year’s European bird days are coordinated by BirdLife, Slovakia. The Bulgarian towns which hosting the event are Sofia, Varna, Haskovo, Svishtov and Gotse Delchev. Besides birdwatching there will also be presentations of endangered species and their migration, round tables etc. All events will take place in strict observance of the epidemiological measures, the Bulgarian Society for the Protection of Birds says.
