Do kraju tego, gdzie winą jest dużą

Dziś obchodzimy Dzień Bociana Białego.
The event was launched in 2003 by Pro Natura, the Polish Society of Friends of Nature. Meetings, performances and exhibitions are taking place across the country, highlighting both the splendour of the species as well as the need to protect the birds. According to naturalists, about 50,000 pairs of the birds nest in Poland each year, which amounts to a fifth of the world's white stork population. In short, nowhere else in the world are you more liable to meet the long-beaked fellows. Storks tend to make their distinctive nests – which can reach a diameter of two metres – on tall trees, but they are also accustomed to building them on telegraph poles or chimneys. The old tale about the birds' deft talents at delivering babies is known not only in Poland, but also in the wider world. - Read more at:
