I live in this area so I have been able to spot a lot of birds. The Ždral fly over our house every year both there and back. (About November, February). I saw Bela lunja once in our valley. A year later it turned out to be a first report in Hungary. I did not know yet that it was a special sighting. Pčelarica have nest walls in two locations in the village. There are always several Bela roda nests and it is a beautiful sight to see them walking together in the valley after the farmer has ploughed.
