Descripción

Kapetanski Rit, as one of the largest fish farms in Serbia, attracts many bird species like Águila Pescadora (on migration), Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental, Pigargo Europeo, and many duck and reed warbler species. The smaller and shallower ponds are the perfect place to look for shorebirds, like Avoceta Común, Aguja Colinegra, Cigüeñuela común, Zarapito Real, Zarapito Trinador, and many Calidris and Tringa species. Different sections of the fish farm are emptied and refilled with water at different times of the year. Do search for the best sections for wadders at the time of your visit.

The fish farm is really huge, so be prepared to spend at least several hours, if not the whole day. Follow the asphalt road that passes along the fish farm, look for birds from the car, park occasionally, and detour shortly to visit smaller ponds scattered on both sides of the road, often in the second line, so make sure not to miss them, as they are usually very productive.

East of the fish farms lies the protected stepe habitat 'Kanjiški Jaraši', which is also worth visiting (Carraca Europea, Alcaudón Chico, Collalba Gris, and sometimes even Alcaraván Común).

This fish farm is part of the IBA 'Subotica lakes and sandy terrain'.

Accesso

Kapetanski Rit Fish Farm is private property; thus, ask for entry permission and make an appointment in advance. The fish farm administration is kind to birders, and usually, there will be no issues with the permit. Fish farms can be accessed from Velebit village from the south and Male Pijace village from the north. Note that the north entry is guarded by the fence, which is usually closed, so it is better to approach from and leave to the south. Click on the 'P' marking for directions.
