Descrição
Although Smederevo Fortress, quay, and Jezava River mouth are nice places for birding, the star species of the city is Andorinhão-pálido in downtown Smederevo. Andorinhão-pálido is a rare species in Serbia, recorded mostly in the southeast near North Macedonia and Bulgaria borders. In northern Serbia, it can be found mostly in bigger cities on the Danube, up to Belgrade and very rarely in Novi Sad. However, Andorinhão-pálido is hugely outnumbered by much more common Andorinhão-preto, thus it is very hard to spot.
Luckily, there is a place and time where and when Andorinhão-pálido is easily spotted in northern Serbia. Because Smederevo is relatively close to the Đerdap gorge, a significant number of Andorinhão-pálido find their way to the town traveling upstream of the Danube. Further, as of the end of September, most of the Andorinhão-preto are already gone, but Andorinhão-pálido stay even up to the first half of November. They can be most easily spotted in Smederevo downtown, in Karađorđeva and Stevana Nemanje streets, throughout all of October, ideally the first half. Look around tall buildings, 5-10 floors tall, in mornings and evenings.
The second best time of the year to visit Smederevo is winter, when unexpected winter guests can come to the Danube, like Cisne-bravo, Mobêlha-árctica, gaivota-da-asa-escura, or Gaivota-argêntea.
