Where we bird
Three signature habitats for Spain birding—dehesa and gorges, Atlantic wetlands, and the Strait migration flyway—woven into our field-tested itineraries.
Doñana wetlands
Doñana National Park holds one of Europe’s great wetland systems: herons, spoonbills, flamingos, Squacco Heron, and—depending on season—Spanish Imperial Eagle over the marshes.
Strait of Gibraltar & the Mediterranean
Tarifa and the Strait for raptor migration, plus coastal wetlands toward the Ebro Delta—soaring storks, kites, and seabirds on a short boat when the weather allows.
