Heading Podlasie 09.03.2012 / Day 12

The last day, time for packing and leaving towards Warsaw, but first....

Before ending of our trip our guests got one more wish - to visit Red Bog region, place that was quite too far from the place we stayed at the beginning of our trip. Why not ? We made our route one more time through Biebrza region.

Soon after leaving Ritowisko and nice farewell with owners we saw hazel grouse just passing at the side of our car. Beautiful blue sky was adding hope for nice observations during last day.
We had interesting drive to the Kopytkowo as Biebrza river in some places flooded road and we were wondering if we will manage to pass, but we succeed. Ice on fields and sides of river looked really impressive. During our ride we saw some mute swans, buzzards and white tailed eagle.

From Kopytkowo we moved towards the Wolves Dune. Slow walk through frozen meadows brought us observations of goshawk and elks activities. After reaching "New World" we could heard another greater spotted and black woodpeckers. Walk to the viewing point resulted in spotting of some elks and roe deers. We haven't found any wolf tracks this time. We walked through another wooden trail, and other dunes and we reached our starting point at New World. Going back to the car resulted in hen harrier hunting at the fields.

When we were driving to Goniadz we saw two additional otters, beaver and some goldeneyes flying just above our heads. In a distance we saw many swans, mainly mute swans.

It was really difficult to say goodbye in Warsaw, as it was really great trip with absolutly special and fantastic family! We hadn't seen lynx or wolf but we succed in:
