Photographer’s Note

Lake Somova, just before the Danube splits into separate tributaries, is fed by underwater springs. It’s water is fresh, still and much of it is covered with reed and vegetation, making it an ideal place for fish to breed and lay eggs.

In the spring and autumn the fish can easily reach the lake via channels from the river.

Pelicans can be seen from spring until autumn, and are best viewed from the rowing boat of a local fisherman. The main flock usually disperses early in the morning and re-groups and disperses again throughout the day.
