Beschreibung
Hutovo Blato Nature Reserve is located in southeastern Herzegovina, on the left side of the Neretva River. The area is about fifteen kilometers away from the Adriatic Sea, so it is greatly influenced by the Mediterranean climate. Pouring into the valleys and depressions of karst sinkholes and surface water from the surrounding areas create a greater number of lakes. The Krupa River is the main watercourse of Hutova blato and takes the waters of Upper Mud and Svitavsko Lake to the Neretva River.
Hutovo Blato is located on the migratory path of birds from North and Central Europe to Asia and Africa. Birds find plenty of food, quiet and peace for rest. The largest number of bird species is registered during the autumn and spring migration, and also a large number of bird species dwell on wintering and nesting. According to the latest research 240 species of birds from 39 families were recorded. In the winter period, birds can stay up to tens of thousands. Among the birds you can see here are Zwergscharbe, Rallenreiher, Purpurreiher, Nachtreiher, Moorente, Knäkente, Uhu, Kranich, Neuntöter, Weißstorch, Weißbart-Seeschwalbe and Kappenammer. And many more, see the birdlist below.
