DRAGOMAN MARSH - BIRDS - RINGING
Dragoman, September 29, 2024 - Between September 14 and October 13, 2024, the Balkani Wildlife Society is holding the 3rd edition of its bird-ringing camp at Dragoman Marsh. Lying a mere 35 km north-west of Sofia, the Marsh is the biggest natural karst wetland in Bulgaria - and arguably in the Balkans. A Ramsar site since 2012, it is home to over 200 species of birds, including some of high conservation status. The volunteers have placed nets at several spots in the marsh and up the hill across the road that goes along it. They check on the nets every hour or so and collect the birds for ringing. Each bird is put in an individual bag and taken to the ringing spot. As they are ringed, the volunteers measures their wings, wing span, feet, beaks, head and body weight. Once this data is collected, the birds are released. Birds of the same species who have been caught in a group, are released together. The 2023 ringing camp ringed 876 birds of 42 species in the course of 15 days. According to Balkani, these camps prove the significance of Dragomansko Marsh as a bird habitat, feeding ground, resting spot for migratory birds and overwintering spot.
