Conservationists from Bulgaria Bird Walks are organising a birdwatching walk in Varna today to observe water fowl and forest birds. Two walks are planned in the Sea Garden at 9.00 and 13.00. There will be similar outings every month in the city, said group leader Mikhail Iliev.

"We will also visit other accessible places in Varna and its surroundings. We will try to impart knowledge about bird species - what they look like and what their songs are, as well as to increase visitors' interest in animals in the long term, to encourage them to pay more attention to nature and to be ambassadors for its preservation," the ornithologist said.

Mikhail Iliev chose the Sea Garden for the first walks because it is the most accessible and familiar to the people of Varna. Among the species that currently inhabit the park are wood pigeons, blackbirds, crows, jays, robins, tits and bramblings. Swans and other water birds can be seen from the seashore.
