Reserve nature Kąty Rybackie, Bird sanctuary in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland.
Reserve nature Kąty Rybackie is a protected wetland area on Poland's Baltic coast dedicated to safeguarding habitats for breeding and migratory birds. The terrain features open water zones, reed beds, and wooded areas that provide different environments for various bird species.
The protected area was established in the mid-20th century to preserve early bird populations. Its holdings expanded significantly over time as it became an increasingly important refuge for growing numbers of species.
The site serves as a gathering place for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts who come to observe water birds and migratory species in their natural habitats. The viewing platforms allow visitors to watch the birds from a distance while keeping them undisturbed.
Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and bring weather-appropriate clothing, as the ground can be marshy in wet areas. The best viewing opportunities occur in early morning or late afternoon when birds are most active.
The site shelters one of the continent's largest cormorant colonies, with tens of thousands of these large water birds nesting here. This massive congregation is a rare phenomenon and makes the location valuable for ornithological research.
