Jezerka
Jezerka is a right tributary of Vrbanja river. It sprouts from the western slopes of the Uzlomac, at 900 m above the sea level. It flows below the villages of Grabik and Jankovine. Her delta is a few kilometers upstream from the Vrbanjci, along the main motorway M-4 (Banja Luka – Doboj).[1][2]
Its largest tributaries are Žilića stream and Dubočaj with Pirizevac (at the right). There were seven mills in the existence on the river in the late 1950's.[3]
On the plateau of its upper flow, there are several crossroads that lead to the village of Gornji Obodnik or to the M-4 motorway. On the northeast slopes of Uzlomac (1,002 m) there is a mountain pass which separates the confluences of Vrbanja river and [Ukrina]] (Božića stream and confluents of Bistrica).
During the War in Bosnia inhabitants along the mouth of Jezerka were expelled and murdered. This is especially true for the villages of Vrbanjci, Večići, Hrvaćani, Garići and Rujevica.[4][5][6][7][8]
