Jan 1999
- One very old, golden-headed mature White-tailed
Eagle flew above us one late January 1999 afternoon, while the
green trawler Aka entered the dock at Donji Milanovac in east
Serbia. Milica Ivovic (Belgrade's Natural History Museum), Goran
Sekulic and myself (Bird Protection and Study Society of Vojvodina)
had counted 29,000 ducks that day alone..Dragan Simic reports.
Skadar Lake N.P., Montenegro
(Yugoslavia) January 1997
- Skadar Lake National Park is a winter sanctuary
for numerous birds that migrate from the frozen marshes of Northern
Europe. When ice grips the northern hemisphere, up to 250,000
ducks, grebes and Coots find here a plenty of food. For an amateur-ornithologist
like me, it's an irresistible lure.... Dragan Simic reports
Birding and Canoeing on the Danube
- During spring and summer months, Belgrade
riverbanks and willow groves owe their charm especially to their
egrets and herons. The first Night Herons appear in the treetops
of the little island by the name of Konjska Ada in the River Danube
branch by the end of March, silent and motionless......In winter,
a long awaited sighting of a White-tailed Eagle over Belgrade
fulfilled a life-long ambition...Dragan Simic reports.
