Szczebreszyn (Poland): Ducks and Storks in the Fields


A few of my wife's mobile shots from her hometown of Szczebreszyn in eastern Poland here, starting with a wonderful group of ducks marching in a fully organised fashion towards hunting for slugs (above).

And below, there is a stork probably looking for frogs in a farmer's field:

Saw the storks arriving in eastern Poland at Easter this year.  They're incredibly popular often making their nests at the top of telegraph poles and sometimes even on top of people's houses.  Of course, as soon as the weather dips and autumn approaches, they get read to fly back to Africa in massive groups.
