Map the regional distribution of protected lands from a Coupar Angus anchor
Coupar Angus provides the geographic anchor for this view of protected places across Perth and Kinross and the surrounding region. Because the source record does not supply reliable local landscape detail, the page stays focused on mapped position and the separately documented identity of each nearby park, reserve, or protected area.

A shallow, overgrown lake reserve guarding one of the Warmia and Mazury region's most important waterbird breeding grounds.
Jezioro Warnołty Nature Reserve is a faunistic protected area in northern Poland, established in 1976 to safeguard a shallow, overgrown branch lake of Lake Śniardwy. Located in the Ruciane-Nida commune within Pisz County in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, the reserve covers roughly 376 hectares of wetland, water, and shoreline habitat that has long been recognized for its value to waterbirds and raptors. The reserve lies within the broader Mazury Landscape Park and is classified as an actively managed protected area. Its mosaic of sedge vegetation, willow thickets, and alder woods frames the lake and provides rich habitat structure for both breeding and foraging birds, including several uncommon raptor species that hunt over the open water and reed margins. Jezioro Warnołty is regarded as one of the most significant ornithological sites in the Warmia and Mazury region, combining lake, island, and wetland habitats in a relatively compact area. Although it is a small nature reserve by national-scale standards, its ecological character and birdlife make it an important node within the larger Great Masurian Lakes system.
