Some species extend their habitat into new territories, but others occur on less and less places and become endangered. It is of extreme importance to us to have up-to-date information of the distribution and numbers of every bird species in Bulgaria in order to plan and implement measures to their conservation.<\/p>\n

BSPB has prepared the first Atlas of nesting birds in Bulgaria (Yankov, 2007). It has laid the foundation for the overall mapping of the birds during their breeding period.<\/p>\n

Thanks to many volunteers, using the mobile app SmartBirdsPro, BSPB gathers actual data about the bird\u2019s distribution in Bulgaria.

In 2020 BSPB provided actual evaluation about the distribution and numbers of 72 birds species with limited distribution in Bulgaria. It has been based on a published results from ornithological researches, made in 2013\u20132020 period as well as on unpublished data from field researches, targeted monitoring and single observations during the period, saved in the Smart Birds information system. During the last evaluation the comparison between the distribution and numbers of the species and the evaluations of the reporting on the Birds Directive from 2007\u20132013 period.<\/p>\n

We are presenting here the data about the nesting and wintering birds in Bulgaria in result of the mutual efforts of numerous birds\u2019 admirers.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ prev_background_color=”#ffffff” next_background_color=”#ffffff” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#ecf9fe” top_divider_style=”wave” top_divider_flip=”vertical” bottom_divider_style=”wave” bottom_divider_flip=”vertical” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_text_align=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Attention: <\/strong>All registered species during this period are also presented, and among them there are probably those that do not breed in the respective square, but are vagrants, summer visitors or migrating.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
