From 19 August to 16 November, every day between 7:00 and 15:00, systematic observations of four groups of birds are carried out here: birds of prey, falcons, pigeons and corvids. The collected data is sent to national monitoring databases and helps scientists track changes in populations and migration patterns.
The tower stands on a dune, above the treetops. Its platform offers a view of the Vistula Lagoon and the Baltic Sea (or, more precisely, the Gulf of Gdańsk, for geography enthusiasts). It is a place where it is easy to find peace and quiet – you cannot hear the city, there is no rush or distractions.
Many visitors say that this is where they truly relax – all you need to do is sit down, look around and let nature work its magic.
You can also join Drapolicz's team. You don't need to be an ornithologist – all you need is curiosity and a willingness to learn. Volunteers help with counting, learn observation methods and, over time, learn to recognise birds in the field. This is a unique opportunity to see what real fieldwork looks like and learn to look at nature more closely.
Participation in the observation is free of charge.
