Some time ago we told the story of a #nesting season of this #GreaterSpottedEagle - this valuable information was obtained thanks to #cameratraps installed by the nest.

The preservation of dead trees is critical for the White-backed #woodpecker. The bird feeds on insects and their larvae extracted from under the bark of old and dead trees. A complete ban on cutting trees in its habitat is imposed. #biodiversity #NatureConservation #RareSpecies
