Heading Podlasie 02.03.2012 / Day 5

First day of sightseeing Bialowieza forest. Shortly after waking up, and great breakfast we moved to the wilderness.

We started in unusuall way - from the northern part of Forest and region of Kosy Bridge. Slow and silent walk resulted in yet another meeting of greater spotted woodpeckers (besides strong wing) and flocks of siskins. In Bison refuge we met many signs of bison activity (droppings etc.) but unfortunately there was no bison.
While walking back to our Guest rooms we met old lynx tracks, and even some wolfish tracks.

Next part of our walk resulted in better sighting. Probably it was connected with better weather conditions. We had luck to met some wolf droppings which made Fiona very happy, and shortly after it we spotted hazel grouse on a tree. Soon after it we have seen also a bison standing by the hay. We had a confidence then - that big, wild cow, really exist !

In evening despite strong wind we moved into nearby forest searching for wolves howling or howls hooking, but we didn't succed. We only managed to find fresh wolf tracks and american mink. This meeting made us really happy!
