SPAIN in spring
SPAIN IN SPRING
An 8 days experience in Extremadura, where the nature still is the star, and the magic Andalusia, in a very peculiar town.
In Extremadura we will have the wonderful opportunity to stay in a private estate that is in part included in the famous Monfrague National Park.
Here, up to an hill, a cosy Casa Rural (hotel) will be our accommodation for 4 nights. You will be able to spend your spare time relaxing in front of stunning panoramas. The estate has been especially developed for nature tourism and we might want to enjoy the view from the photographic hides placed all around the property where several species can be seen at a close distance!
We will have the possibility of observing and (for those who are keen in photography) taking pictures of many of the most typical birds of the Spanish dehesa (landscape made of Evergreen, Pyrenean and Cork oaks).
First of all the raptors, staring with vultures: hundreds of Griffon and Cinereous Vultures, together with Ravens and Black and Red Kites, in flight, perched, fighting or feeding.
But also mammals, like Genet, Beech Marten and Red Fox as well as a huge number of small passerines like Blue Rock-thrush, Woodchat Shrike, Iberian Magpie, Spotless Starling, Rock Sparrow, Hawfinch and Cirl Bunting.
Different daily excursions to the Natural Park and on some surroundings area will enrich our species check list to deep inside the naturalistic beauty of this european destination.
The remaining 3 nights will be spent in a quality hotel located in a very peculiar town in Andalusia, called El Rocio. It has an old taste, with its dirty roads even in the very centre of the town and the elevated coffee tables for customers riding horses, it seems to be in the wild wild west rather than in southern Spain. Come with us in 2019 to see why everyone travels with Ornitholidays to Spain!
