whole day 26.01.2025

Bulgaria: Belozem - a village in Rakovski Municipality of Plovdiv Province

- Krum stayed in the forenoon by the stream Azmaka; then our stork circled several times over his favourite field; for the night he returned to that same place by the Maritsa river as previous night
- Krum sa zdržiaval dopoludnia pri potoku Azmaka; potom náš bocian niekoľkokrát zakrúžil nad svojím obľúbeným poľom; na noc sa vrátil na to isté miesto pri rieke Marica ako predchádzajúcu noc
