The best place to go birdwatching in the region, many rare and sought-after species can be seen here, including various eagles, storks and others.
The sheer diversity of sought-after wildlife in Lotoshino here is immense and well-worth a visit even though the place is somewhat hard to get to. Anyone interested in birdwatching in Moscow Oblast should spare a day for this place, as missing it is absolutely unthinkable.
Cicogna bianca breed in the village Bol'shaya Sestra, and can be seen rather reliably. The entire area of the ponds is an excellent place to observe Aquila di mare, in fact, many visitors believe seeing this eagle is guaranteed here, and this may be the most reliable site in a huge radius of Moscow. Other raptors which use the reserve are Aquila anatraia minore and Aquila anatraia maggiore. Although both eagles have a good presence here, seeing the eagles is not guaranteed. For best results, visit a place described at the end.
In recent years, sightings of Cicogna nera seem to have increased exponentially, and in 2020 a Cicogna nera summered here. The stork favoured the south-western parts of the area, and in fact this area, indicated by a map, is also the area where most eagle sightings appear to be concentrated. This is the only place in the region where Cigno selvatico breeds, which can be seen on the large ponds. The surrounding forests hold Gufo reale, Gallo cedrone, Civetta capogrosso and Allocco degli Urali among more common ones.
This reserve is best reached by car from Moscow, or alternatively by taxi from Volokolamsk to Bol'shaya Sestra. It is doable by public transport but difficult as timetables aren't the best for the region.
From Volokolamsk, turn down the R108 and continue down to Maslennikovo, where it joins the R107. Turn left, and then in the first possible place turn right onto a road heading north. Continue down this road to Borki and Bol'shaya Sestra, park and explore the ponds on foot.
The area is a fish farm, and the guards of the fish farm sometimes get nervous when people visit. To avoid any confrontations, a link is provided down below to a phone number which you should call before visiting, mentioning the date and number of people with you.
