01:10 and the ducks could lose their first fear and repeat it.
01:14 So on the one hand we have these birds with the young all the time,
01:17 who lead these young, care for them.
01:20 And on the other hand, more and more wandering birds are arriving.
01:23 Those who are already flying from the north, from the northeast.
01:27 There are already guests from Siberia, from northern Scandinavia,
01:31 such as the shepherd birds.
01:33 You can observe the broods, the smaller cockerels,
01:36 the smaller cockerels, the spiny-billed brood, the swallows in the larger flocks.
01:41 These are the small birds with a longer beak, longer legs,
01:44 which feed on the exposed bottom, on such a mud.
01:49 So where, especially where there are abandoned ponds,
01:54 where fish have already been caught, these birds gather there.
01:57 So on the one hand, local species,
01:59 and on the other, more and more of these newcomers from the far north.
02:04 But also these birds, fast-starting broods,
02:07 such as the gengaves or the gray-winged cormorants, cranes.
02:11 They already have adult, reared, young,
02:14 and these birds, in turn, gather in increasing flocks.
02:18 And in these flocks, during the day, they feed somewhere
02:21 in the vicinity of ponds, meadows, fields, on the grasslands.
02:24 However, especially in the afternoon and evening,
02:27 they flock to ponds, to such collective habitats.
02:30 So now is just such a very interesting transition time.
02:33 In the evenings, from such a late afternoon to the evening,
02:37 you can observe cranes,
02:40 which flock to collective habitats.
02:43 There are several hundred of these cranes so far.
02:46 I think there will be several thousand birds in a month,
02:49 because more and more birds will arrive from the north
02:52 and from the northeast.
02:54 These flocks will be getting bigger and bigger.
02:56 And the Milickie Ponds are a very important stop
02:59 on the cranes' hiking route.
03:02 They are also very important places for lodging.
03:05 So there are several such large ponds,
03:08 especially the Grabownica Pond or the Stary Pond
03:11 in the western part of the Baryczy Valley,
03:14 where a lot of these cranes gather.
03:17 And they just feel safer at night in the flock.
03:20 This is also a time for them
03:23 when they exchange information from all day long.
03:26 They exchange where there are abundant ponds,
03:29 where it is worth flying, where it is safe.
03:32 But they also close those bonds between them.
03:35 Because later they also wander in large groups
03:38 and it is important for them that this social element
03:41 and these relationships are as if constant
03:44 and good with these neighbors and companions of the journey.
03:47 By observing the birds,
03:50 we can also observe many other animals,
03:53 because the Milickie Ponds are a very diverse ecosystem.
03:56 A landscape composed of sets
03:59 often surrounded by reed and reed shrubs,
04:02 surrounded by wet forests,
04:05 the so-called oaks,
04:08 which are a great habitat for many other species of animals,
04:11 including, for example, for the plaids.
04:14 Now is a time when young frogs,
04:17 young gulls are getting bigger and bigger.
04:20 They are still quite tiny,
04:23 but it is a time of late summer
04:26 and the journey of these young plaids.
04:29 So also walking somewhere between the ponds,
04:32 it is worth looking under your feet
04:35 so as not to trample the little frog,
04:38 or the kumak.
04:41 However, a very good time to observe the deer has also begun.
04:44 It is worth looking at the reed shrubs among the ponds
04:47 and observing whether a deer's den
04:50 is not coming out of the reed.
04:53 Now, this year's plaids are 3-4 months old,
04:56 they are already fully functional,
04:59 they follow their mothers more and more,
05:02 they are able to easily swim
05:05 this distance between the edge of the pond and the reeds,
05:08 or between one reed and the other.
05:11 And it is very nice to observe them in the afternoons,
05:14 especially in the pond complex,
05:17 from the pond, from the shore,
05:20 without disturbing them at all.
05:23 Just a plaid and a moment of patience.
05:26 and a moment of patience.
