Catches include perch, pike, salmon, eel and herring. The country's many meadows and pastures are a prime habitat for the corncrake, now rare in other parts of Europe. White storks are common in agricultural areas near wetlands. Reed marshes harbour bitterns and marsh harriers, while ospreys and the large white-tailed eagle can be seen by lakes and rivers. The forests contain a variety of birds including hazelhens, black storks, pygmy owls and three-toed woodpeckers.
Local operators can arrange birdwatching trips.
