Beskrivning

The hilly country around the small hamlet of Bela Reka, southwest of the much visited Mt. Avala nature reserve, is a traditional farming landscape. One of a few remaining pockets of the grassland and woodland mosaic that used to cover the countryside south of Belgrade, before intensive agriculture and widespread development. Here you can stroll across grassy meadows rich in wildflowers and insect life, perfect habitat for grassland-loving species such as ortolansparv (Bela Reka has one of the largest concentrations of this species around the capital), gulsparv, buskskvätta, trädlärka, vaktel and rapphöna.

Bordering the meadows are well-preserved, diverse hedges which harbor many nesting törnskata, sydnäktergal and törnsångare. In winter, being rich in sloe and hawthorn berries, these hedges attract flocks of björktrast, rödvingetrast, dubbeltrast and in some years sidensvans. Right next to these open landscapes are shady woods of oak and hornbeam, criss-crossed with small streams, where breeding spillkråka, mellanspett, and migrating halsbandsflugsnappare and svartvit flugsnappare in spring are guaranteed. Also breeding in these woods is morkulla which may be heard and observed on spring evenings. You are also very likely to see duvhök, hunting in low flight over the fields and hedges, and soaring Bivråk.
