A total of 533 platforms for stork nests have been installed in the western regions of Bulgaria by the energy distribution company CEZ in order to provide conditions for safe nesting of birds, electronic media 3e-news reported. The platforms have been placed in key locations.

The project is implemented in coordination with the Bulgarian Society for the Protection of Birds. As part of its Life for Birds project, in 2019 the company installed a camera in one of the stork nests in the village of Dragushinovo in the municipality of Samokov.
