That’s what winter is the best time to observe and photograph the bison. Low temperatures żubrom not interfere, because the thick fur protects them. But when we want them to take pictures of this beautiful winter time in the Bialowieza Forest we must remember that our camera equipment does not like very low temperatures.We need to prepare such an adventure.

Communing with these giants brings unique experience. Bison, which meet in the wild looks completely different than the one we see in the yard, in his eyes, you can see the Freedom.
