Many yellow Pxxx rings have been used in S Poland, birds ringed as pullus especially in May and June 2011 and 2012, at ZB. Kozielno, Paczkow, S-SW Poland, (50°29' N,  16°58' E).

Paczkow is a small town at the shore of river Nysa Kłodzka (in Czech: Kladská Nisa, in German: Glatzer Neiße) which is a river in SW Poland. Nysa Kłodzka flows into the large river Oder, and measures 182 km's.

Near Paczkow is the small village of Kozielno, famous for its fish sports and famous for the ring reading details. Two water reservoirs hold a few islands which have good colonies of cachinnans.
