Photos have begun to flow in from all over the country to the seat of the Park in Drozdowo, showing how graceful a model a Stork can be. Wading, feeding, flying, sitting... - no situation from the life of the Stork escaped the attention of the photographers. The jury consisting of: Zdzisław Folga, Anna Bureś, Marek Maliszewski had quite a problem with choosing the most interesting shots. After long deliberations it was decided to award three main prizes and six honorable mentions.
