Sažetak
During the springs of 2015 and 2016 the waterbird fauna of a temporary pool was studied on agricultural field near Darda village in Baranya. In the two years of research, a total of 19 waterbird species was detected, of which 10 species belonged to Charadriiformes, 5
species to Ciconiiformes, and 4 species to Anseriformes. The spring migration of waterbirds on the pool reached its height in the second half of April, but most species were seen in early May. The three most abundant species were: Wood Sandpiper Tringa glareola, Blackwinged
Stilt Himantopus himantopus, and Mallard Anas platyrhynchos. The most interesting is the first observation of Common Shelduck Tadorna tadorna in the area of Darda municipality, and the occurrence of Eurasian Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia that very rarely lands
in Baranya outside Kopački rit Nature Park. Results of this study indicate the great importance of periodic pools in agricultural habitats as stopover sites for migrating waterbirds, especially for shorebirds.
