Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Bielik, our national emblem bird. This was the first time I have ever seen one, let alone two ;) , in my life.
To encourage you to visit this place for birdwatching I've included a short video of the place where we watched the birds and the sunrise.

The road


Park Krajobrazowy Doliny Bystrzycy,
1/8 s F/9 ISO 100 EF 70-200 f4 L at 200mm, tripod mounted , 6:45 AM

This image was take on the same sunrise trip as the previous flower post (the photograph showing the last moments of the subject; 'Dad, I want to pick up some flowers for Mom', they made a wonderful wake up gift., as we came back home way before everybody else got up.)
The above has White Balance set to cloudy for that warm morning look, but I still am not sure if I prefer a postcard look or a chilly morning look with WB set to dayllight that's closer to the truth...
