The Secrets of Wild Nature
The Lithuanian Ornithological Society presents the film The Secrets of Wild Nature. In large woods and nearly inaccessible mires one can still find sites where the wild nature realm exists, not disturbed by human activities. The film glances at swamps of the Biebrza river, the vicinity of lake Žuvintas, the Čepkeliai mire, woods of Dainava and Rūdininkai and other exceptional areas in view of nature in the Dainava region.
The film was created by its author Eugenijus Drobelis, Vidmantas Blažys, a sound editor, and Dainius Pulauskas, an author of the music. The film was produced in the implementation of Project No. LT-PL-1R-056 “Natural Heritage – A Tool for Development of the Birdwatching Tourism In Dzūkija and Biebrza Valley““, funded by the European Regional Development Fund and project partners according to the Interreg V-A – Lithuania-Poland Cross-border Cooperation Programme
