Story
PODA bird reserve in Bulgaria is very very special.
Special as in an area the size of the UK there are limited opportunities to experience nature undisturbed with only two bird reserves in the country.
Special as it provides fantastic nature engagement opportunities for the local community with many schools and children relying on it to access the wonderful nature it provides.
Special for international birders to experience the passage of migration on the famous Via Pontica route where Pelicans, Eagles and Storks can readily be seen.
Recently the reserve has been through some important conservation improvements which have meant that funds are pretty low. The old telescopes are no longer serviceable and a new set of optics is needed for the centre to fulfil its engagement function.
I have volunteered at this reserve several times and have seen first hand how important it is for young people and children as an access to nature, please give as much as you can to enable PODA to maintain it`s special nature status.
Thank you.
