Today, while vacationing in Europe, VMNH Associate Curator of Invertebrate Zoology Dr

Today, while vacationing in Europe, VMNH Associate Curator of Invertebrate Zoology Dr. Kal Ivanov joined local bird expert Strahil Peev on a birding trip along the mighty Danube - Europe's second largest river. Despite the chilly morning temperatures, the pair managed to record 34 species, including Pygmy Cormotant, Great Cormorant, Mute Swan, Gray Heron, Little Egret, Little Ringed Plover, and four species of gulls; the most exciting of which was a single Lesser Black-backed Gull!
