The first storks are already being spotted in the sky above Burgas. The news comes from the Nature Conservation Center "Poda", from where they announce the early spring guests – the familiar silhouette with outstretched black and white wings and slow, confident flight, which every year brings the feeling that winter is leaving.

The appearance of the storks is one of the most anticipated signs of the arrival of spring and traditionally provokes smiles in people. For those who have already observed them in flight, the dilemma remains – should they put on Martenitsa in 4 days or not?

The area of "Poda" is among the best places near Burgas for bird watching and every year attracts nature lovers precisely in the period of spring migration.
