In that period the Golden Eagle (<i>Aquila chrysaetos<\/i>) was treated in the bathroom, the injured owls and buzzards were in the bigger room. Their 20 years of experience helped establish a seriously planned and effective rehabilitation centre.

Ivaylo guided us through every room. The path was the same an injured bird has to pass along when it arrives to the centre. We visited the operator, the surgery and we also had the opportunity to see the intensive care, but just for a couple of minutes, to avoid disturbing the birds. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenbalkans-wrbc.org\/show.php?id=198&amp;language=en_EN&amp;cat_id=84&amp;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ivan<\/a>, Ivaylo`s colleague showed us the incubators used in breeding programs and he shared some tricks with us about how they put back the chicks in the nests. After they put the chicks hatched in an incubator in the nest they cover it with an egg-shelf, this way the parent birds think they hatched it. They showed us how they store the food for different species from the Centre.<\/p><p>Our final stop was the place where the breeding program of rare and protected species, like Saker Falcons (<i>Falco cherrug<\/i>) and Lesser Kestrels (<i>Falco naumanni<\/i>) is accomplished. At the entrance there are birds which cannot be released for different reasons. These can be visited freely by anyone. Ivaylo also presented their educational programmes, and means of receiving many people and children in the Rehabilitation Centre, without the visitors disturbing the rehabilitation of birds.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1280\" src=\"https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"8\" class=\"wp-image-24721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-scaled-600x300.jpg 600w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-1536x768.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/8-2048x1024.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Griffon Vultures (<em>Gyps fulvus<\/em>) from Sliven<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><p>On the last day of our trip we visited the Sliven National Park.
