American couple looking to bird one full day in either Biebzra or Białowieża Forest on 6 May. What do you recommend? Are you available to spend a day with us? Charge?
Dear Roberta,
Thanks for writing, I wrote you an email but have not heard from you since..
I am available on the 6th May in the Biebrza Marshes.
I would recommend a trip around the best sites (ca. 8 hrs) for wildlife and beautiful landscapes and if you go for full day – an additional dawn and/or dusk short trip for Elks/Beaver/ Aquatic Warber.
I can meet you at your accommodation in the Biebrza area and join you in your vehicle for the time of the trip.
Looking forward to hear from you,
Kind regards,
Lukasz
