The texture of this Aspen tree looks like a relief.

Elks (Moose) are still in their winter habitats in NE Poland - conifer woods. Soon they will move towards marshes to feed on some fresh greenery, including their favorite willows & marsh marigolds.

A daily life of Pygmy Owls in NE Poland. The male calls from the entrance to the treehole, inviting the female inside; she accepts his invitation and they mate inside. This nesthole is just 200 metres away from last year’s, also in aspen tree. 🔊

@MarcinAdamC @szczesniak__a 500 mm

@wildlifeguidePL @szczesniak__a Ładne. jaka ogniskowa?

Black Storks have arrived to Białowieża Forest.

@HOlbrycht84085 Wilków oficjalnych danych nie ma, ale moim zdaniem (starsze dane z IBS + "ekspercka" korekta) jest 40-50, z tym że po tej zimie i świerzbie, myślę że to bliżej dolnej granicy. Rysi raczej max kilkanaście.

@wildlifeguidePL Gratulacje… czy wiadomo, ile jest teraz wilków w Puszczy Białowieskiej ? I rysi ? Pozdrowienia !

@HOlbrycht84085 tak, przedwczoraj ta fotka zrobiona

@wildlifeguidePL Już jest ?
