Description
Uvac nature reserve is is located in southwestern Serbia. The protected area is elongated and comprises the valley of the Uvac river, including the Uvac Gorge. The nature reserve is a canyon-like valley of the river, including the valleys of its tributaries. The river cut its bed deep into the limestone rocks and formed a narrowed gorge-canyon valleys with high and steep limestone cliffs. An average deep of the valley is between 200 and 300 meter. The Uvac gorge is especially known for its curving meanders which are cut in the canyon-like fashion. The main attraction in the reserve is the avifauna, with 172 bird species. The most important inhabitant of Uvac is the Vautour fauve, of which hundreds live in the reserve, the biggest colony in the Balkans. Among the other birds you can see here are Vautour moine, Harle bièvre, Tichodrome échelette, Grand-duc d'Europe, Pygargue à queue blanche, Aigle royal, Circaète Jean-le-Blanc and Cassenoix moucheté.
