The incident happened this morning in the area of ​​the Polish village of Bialowieza. Migrants behaved aggressively, threw tree branches and stones, and a stick with nails was taken…

Luty, Białowieża...

One of the most suprising observation of Tengmalm's Owl I ever had.
During the survey in Białowieża Forest had a male singing from the hole in aspen tree (Populus tremula)!
My friends who are researching this species for ages say it's mega rare - in NE Poland owls inhabit pines.

I was supposed to be looking for Marsh Tits and Wood Warblers, but got distracted by the many singing Red-breasted Flycatchers. I had 13 this morning alone. An arrival of Spotted Flycatchers, too, and lots of Collared Flycatchers. #Bialowieza

BREAKING:

Poland announces that 2 Belarusian military helicopters intruded Polish airspace today, flying across the Białowieża National Park.

The flew across the border at a low altitude to avoid radar and then quickly returned back home.

Belarus is trying to escalate tensions

Ever wanted to visit Europe's last primeval woodland? I run 1 and 4 day guided tours around Białowieża Forest.

These aren't your typical tours focusing on history and bison. They're tailored to people interested in rewilding and natural forest ecology. Topics you can choose to…

A domesticated cow escaped from her farm and spent the winter with a herd of wild bison in Poland's Białowieża Forest.

She 'chose freedom', says a local scientist bbc.com/news/blogs-new…

The fabulous Red-breasted Flycatcher. One of my favourite forest birds. There are lots in #Bialowieza this year.

I knew Białowieża was extraordinarily rich in nature but wasn’t prepared for how achingly beautiful it is. On a perfect spring morning coffee amid carpet of coralroot, stitchwort, wood anemone, yellow archangel, violet & spring pea. A pair of collared flycatchers flit about.

Enigmantic sound of the thrush nightingale, Luscinia megarhynchos. Wish we had them in Ireland. This one was recorded last week at Białowieża, Poland.

Jest wyrok! Polany białowieskie uratowane!
To wielki sukces dla przyrody i regionu.
Już nie ma wątpliwości, że burmistrz #Białowieża zezwalając na wygrodzenie i zabudowę panelami fotowoltaicznymi polan białowieskich, złamał prawo.
🟢 Mamy nadzieję, że wyrok WSA położy kres…

Białowieża Primeval Forest's rivers have been scarred by humans

These photos show the Łutownia River valley. See how the waterway flows in a straight, narrow ditch. It was canalised in the previous two centuries to facilitate the shipping of logged wood out of the forest.

River…

I’ve been missing beavers in Białowieża so pleased to come across this beaver lodge amidst flooded carr. They have such an extraordinary impact in creating diversity within forests.

Niech będzie dla Was szczęśliwy 🌱😊💪🌼
