2014 Belarus, Turow

Late May (22-25) we visited Turow area in Belarus.
Prypiat floodplain was at this time quite dry because of short snow cover during winter of 2013/2014.
Birding was nice, though the temperature exceeded 30 C.
We used help of Dymitrij Vincheski - without his knowledge we would not find many nice birds and villages.
