Kremnické Bane (Slovakia) on 2nd June 2008

Our only birding opportunity this day was at Kremnické Bane, just north of Kremnica in Slovakia. Here we had 20 minutes at the station, waiting for our transport to the historic, and very fine, town of Kremnica. As my background is with railways, I know that, in Central Europe, you can be almost certain of finding Black Redstarts at country railway stations (railway yards are also good). This location was no exception with a pair of birds nesting inside a station building (access through a broken window) beside where we were waiting. There were also House Martins under the eaves of the same building, and Serins on the wires above the tracks in front of the building.

Please Note: Blogger seems to be making it difficult for some (many?) people to leave comments on blogs, and also making it difficult for the recipient of comments to detect that a comment has been left. If you have any difficulties leaving a comment on the blog, please feel free to email me on richard@peglermail.co.uk. However, if you are solely trying to promote your own blog or business by leaving a link in your comment, it will be blocked. If anyone wants to find you as a result of a comment that you have left, they can do so by looking at your profile.

Please, Blogger, get this mess sorted out.
