Problems for Pelicans.

On the 28th May it was observed that all the Pelicans here had gone.

Investigations into the reasons why revealed that Wild Boar had been present at the breeding colony/site.

On 30th May we witnessed around 100 Pelicans return briefly to feed but they left 1 or 2 hours later.

Today I have seen only 3 Pelicans. I have been informed that the Bulgarian Academy of Science have proposed actions which they have put before the relevant Ministry.

I must thank Nevena Kambourova and Kolyo Mihof for their input to this information.
