Another heat wave—some people are happy about it, but it reminds me of what hap
I took these photos (with my phone) in July 2022
They were established within the “Wyspy Zawadowskie” Nature Reserve
This is an area in the southern part of Warsaw, covering approximately 530 hectares on both banks of the Vistula River, including the riverbed
It protects wild islands, sandy shoals, and waterfowl and marsh birds
Many rare species of birds live here, nesting on the sandbanks and islands.
You’re not allowed to fly drones within the reserve, even if you have a permit to enter the area, so I only have photos taken from ground level and only with my phone; we hadn’t planned to work there.
I think it's clear that there are no islands, so both people and animals can reach the nests and destroy them, the eggs, and the newly hatched chicks
I haven't been there yet this year, but I don't think the situation is any better.
