Beschrijving

Check the trees by the orthodox church in the main town square in Kikinda. The world record 734 Ransuil were counted here in December 2009, in the trees lining the Srpskih Dobrovoljaca Square, particularly behind and around the Church of St Nikola. Other species include Syrische Bonte Specht, possibly a Velduil too and Steenuil. And just outside the town Blauwe Kiekendief and Klapekster.

The best season is from mid-November to mid-January, the colder – the better.

Extra info

The pizzeria “Twenty” has an open pizza oven, excellent pizzas and smooth local sljivovica, just the thing to round up the owl-watching experience, especially when in winter proper you become half-frozen after an hour of neck-stretching exercises. Be warned: there is no non-smoking area.
