Komierowo Palace has invited Przemysław Kunysz, a distinguished ornithologist and nature guide from Przemyśl, to collaborate.
Below we present a study based on his observations in our park. We invite nature lovers to visit Komierowo Palace and admire its fauna.
"The Palace and Park Complex in Komierów is located in a very attractive natural area. The Tuchola Forest is a valuable bird conservation area, where 30 species of European Union importance under the Birds Directive have been recorded nesting. The most important species to see include: the Little Bittern, the Great Bittern, the Garganey, the Black and White Stork, the Honey Buzzard, the Montagu's and Marsh Harriers, the Black Kite, the White-tailed Eagle, the Corn Crake, the Eagle Owl, the Tengmalm's Owl, the Tawny Pipit, the Red-breasted Flycatcher, the Kingfisher, the Black Woodpecker, the Ortolan Bunting, and the Barred Warbler.
The nearby Tuchola Forest National Park, established in 1996 on an area of 4,613.04 hectares, is also a valuable bird conservation area.
The historic park in Komierów, located around the beautiful palace, is home to 42 bird species due to its natural character and appearance. Forest and park species nest here. and partially water. The proximity of open fields and meadows favors the intermingling of field and meadow species.
Species found within the palace and park complex, such as:
Kingfisher, Red-backed Shrike, Spotted Flycatcher, and Eurasian Wryneck are birds that are declining in both Poland and Europe.
When observing, remember a few basic rules. Birds are best observed during their peak activity, i.e., in the morning and evening. Binoculars are recommended for accurate species identification and enhanced birdwatching. A calm demeanor and clothing that contrasts little with the surroundings are also recommended. The early hours of the day will be favorable for bird photographers. The best light for photography is during the so-called golden hour, i.e., during sunrise and sunset.
