Bulgaria

I made a short trip to Melnik, Bulgaria in February 2014, the main reason being to take images of Dalmatian Pelicans which were on the borders of Bulgaria, just into Greece. There are just a few images below from Bulgaria showing a little of the rural countryside. Didn't take many as I was over the borders in Greece most of the time. The Dalmatian Pelicans I have put on to a separate page, please click here to view.
