Descrizione
The Rače ponds are located on the outskirts of the Drava plain, 12 km south of Maribor and close to the village of Rače. The ponds have been used for fish farming since 1870 – a time when they were owned by the counts of Rače. Today carp cultivation still takes place in six ponds. Birds can be experienced here throughout the whole year. Among aquatic species regularly nesting here are Tuffetto and Svasso maggiore, Moretta, Folaga and lately the endangered Moretta tabaccata. The Lodolaio, hunting dragon flies, can often be seen overflying the water surfaces. With some luck you can also spot Falco pescatore here in time of migration. Throughout the whole year Martin pescatore hunts from the branches by the water, whereas the Airone cenerino hunts from the branches in the forest. The Cicogna nera, which nests in the nearby forest, appears in the area regularly as well. Different waders can be observed when the water level is low.
