The white stork is common but most couples live a perilous life, the dangers hanging literally under their wings.
Another bird specie I met during my walking was the Black Woodpecker:

POLEN (nr 2) APRIL 2013
16 to 27 April.
My second walk in Poland took off from Morag in the north-east region of Warmia-Mazuria in former (German) East Preussia and ended six walking days later in Chorzele just south of the old border between East Preussia and Poland. Wizzair brought me from Göteborg City Airport to Gdansk (45 minutes only) and after a bus 210 (50 minutes) to Gdansk Glowny i.e. Central Station and the evening train to Morag via Elblag (2 hrs) and a taxi (5 minutes), I could finally get some sleep at the E-Lektor hotel that I had booked though www.booking.com some days before.
A simple ** hotel but value for money. After breakfast the following morning, having bought som bread, cheese and water at the Biedronka (Ladybug) store, my walking sticks full lenght, I started my walk. A few drops of rain, I say a few drops, before I was out of town was in fact the only rain I experienced during the coming eleven days in the country, of which I walked six and rested the rest...
My backpack was light: only four kilos plus the food and drink of another kilo. Two sticks instead of only one turned out to be very helpful balancing on the ditches aside the relatively heavy trafficed main roads as on the simple gravel or sand roads in the peacefull woods.
It did not take long to meet with the first couple of white storks. Their show should repeat itself every coming day. At one time south of Szcytno, I spotted six or seven storks. Along with those impressive and proud birds along the road I would identify a large number of frogs even though a majority were only skins on the road surface after meeting with some vehicle's tire.
