Hi My wife and i were in Krakow last weekend too - a pair of Nuthatches nest prospecting in one of the big Beeches near Krakow centre , and 2 Common Cranes in a field en route to Auschwitz.
Not a birding trip at all...but couldn't help notice a few bits :)
Katowice city centre - Buzzard low over the rail station A pair of house sparrows hopping around my feet in the waiting room!
Krakow city centre - Peregrine over head Fair amount of pigeons, gulls and other city birds too
Auschwitz - The place that is wrongly known for being dead of bird life had plenty of jackdaw! A few sparrows and starlings calling I think I managed to spot a tawny in the woods at the rear of Birkenau...but only a fleeting glimpse!
On the coach and trains - Buzzards x3 Kestrel x2 The usual small bits flitting around fields...too distant to ID positively! Plenty of roe deer
