Experts from the Blue Stones Nature Park have helped save a small baby kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), the Forests Executive Agency has reported. The young falcon was brought to the park directorate by a man who found it in the industrial zone of Sliven.

A few days ago, two baby hedgehogs were rescued in a similar way. They were sent to grow up at the Wildlife Rescue Center in Stara Zagora and will probably be released again in the area where they were found.
The Nature Park officials often accept distressed animals, such as owls, storks, turtles, eagles, vultures, crows, swifts, hedgehogs and others.
