Description
The area near Kościan is a fantastic destination for birdwatchers. Along the canals, vast meadows stretch for kilometers, providing rich feeding grounds and nesting sites. These habitats attract a remarkable variety of raptors, meadow species, and birds typical of a mosaic landscape where fields, pastures, trees, and waterways intermix. Such diversity makes the site particularly valuable. In one outing you can observe hunting buzzards or harriers, hear larks and pipits in the grasslands, and see herons or storks searching for food along the ditches. The combination of open meadows and small patches of woodland or farmland creates ideal conditions for spotting many different species in a single visit.
In this area, you can take shorter or longer loops, or simply wander across the meadows without sticking to designated paths. Partly paved roads also make it possible to explore the site by bike. Birds you can observe include Oie cendrée, Cygne tuberculé, Canard colvert, Caille des blés ,Grue cendrée, Vanneau huppé, Cigogne blanche, Héron cendré, Grande Aigrette, Balbuzard pêcheur, Aigle pomarin, Busard des roseaux, Busard Saint-Martin, Busard cendré, Épervier d'Europe, Milan royal, Buse variable, Faucon crécerelle, Pie-grièche écorcheur, Pie-grièche grise, Grand Corbeau and Hirondelle rustique.
The agricultural landscape and abundance of food attracts birds that are rare in Poland and unusual to this region. Buse féroce and Busard pâle have repeatedly been seen in this area. In 2025, Aigle des steppes was also seen in the area.
