Hello everyone :-)

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

- this morning, our Krum took a sightseeing flight over "his" rice fields, the Azmaka stream, and the Maritsa River, and then returned to the canals/rice fields – the same place where he was resting and looking for food yesterday
- Krum si dnes ráno urobil vyhliadkový let nad "svojimi" ryžovými poliami, potokom Azmaka a riekou Maritsa a vrátil sa ku kanálom/ryžovým poliam - tam, kde oddychoval a hľadal si potravu aj včera
