Catalonia Showcase
European Bee-eater bird watching in Spain

Option 1: Catalonia Showcase - 7 night birding tour

Discover the best bird watching in Catalonia! Ebro Delta, Lleida steppes & Els Ports Mountains

Tour Overview:


This Birding tour  is a comprehensive week-long bird watching itinerary of the Catalonian region which aims to showcase the very best sites that  this fantastic zone has to offer. We will be visiting well researched locations in order to maximise the variety of species encountered  and  concentrating on the 3 key habitats of wetlands, mountains and plains.


Wetlands - we will be birding in some amazing wetland locations, starting of course at the famous Ebro Delta which we will be exploring by car and boat, looking for rare birds like  Collared Pratincole, Little Bittern and Savi's Warbler. As the week  progresses we will visit some other fantastic wetland birding zones, including Sebes  Nature reserve at Flix.


Mountains - The second key habitat that this birding tour incorporates will be mountainous areas in the Els Ports natural park.  During our mountain bird watching excursion we will look for some of the  tiny residents of the pine forest (Crested Tit, Firecrest, Bonelli's  Warbler etc.) and also drive through some rugged mountainous zones which  are suitable for the likes of  Rock Thrush, Black-eared Wheatear  and many more. We will also make a visit to the northern canyons of Monegros - a true raptor hotspot where we can encounter Golden Eagle, Spanish Imperial Eagle, Booted Eagle, Short-toed Eagle, Goshawk & more!
 

Steppe lands / Plains - The third terrain we will explore during the week will be the dry  lands close to the city of Lleida, which offer a completely different  mix of species in expansive open agricultural zones. Here we can find  some of the most sought after species of Spanish birding,  with highlights such as Little Bustard, European Roller, Lesser  Kestrel, Iberian Grey Shrike, Great-spotted Cuckoo, Montagu's Harrier  and both Pin-tailed & Black-bellied Sandgrouse.
 

This tour is fully inclusive of return airport transfers to Barcelona  International Airport and features five nights accommodation at our  private Guest House close to the Ebro Delta, with the other two nights of the  tour being at Ibis Hotel in Lleida.

Option 2: Winter Wonders of Northern Spain - 7 night tour

A dedicated winter birding adventure in Catalonia and Aragon

Tour Overview:


Our 7-day 'Winter Wonders of Northern Spain' is  a full week birding itinerary which runs anytime from the  beginning of November through to the end of February. We will be going  in search of some of Spain's most sought after species, and taking in  some magnificent birding spectacles along the way. This winter birding tour is a 3 centre experience which showcases a trio of magnificent but diverse birding regions:


Ebro Delta: The first location we will be birding is (of course!) the Ebro Delta, where we will spend two days enjoying the best of the wetland's resident  bird-life and checking out some of the winter visitors. We can expect to see vast flocks of Greater Flamingos feeding in the saline lagoons of  the Delta, and congregations of ibis, herons, egrets & waders in the now boggy rice fields. The delta is a winter refuge for many varieties of  wildfowl, and raptors abound with multiple Marsh Harriers, Booted Eagles and a good chance of Peregrine & Merlin. Passerines such as Moustached Warbler, Dartford Warbler, Bluethroat & many others are will be in situ throughout the cooler months.
 

Laguna de Gallocanta & Monegros plains: The second leg of this winter birding trip sees us depart to Gallocanta in the dry-land plains to the south of Zaragoza, where we will spend a day birding around the famous Laguna, which is Spain's largest natural lake. Alongside a huge wintering population of Common Cranes (which can number up to 60,000 birds during peak passage times of mid November and late February!), we can also target Great & Little Bustard and enjoy sightings of raptors like Hen Harrier & Golden Eagle. Rarities like Dupont's Lark, Pallid Harrier and Black-winged Kite are possible within this zone. Our second day of steppe-land birding will see us searching a reliable location for Great Bustard in the Monegros plains before enjoying some outstanding raptor birding in the canyons to the north with regular sightings of Golden Eagle, Eagle-owl, Goshawk and multiple Red Kites & Marsh Harriers.
 

Catalonian Pyrenees & Sierra de Guara: For the final leg of the tour we depart for the mountains, heading initially towards the town of Tremp in the Catalonian Pyrenees where our main targets will be Eurasian Black Vulture & Wallcreeper. Our second day of mountain birding sees us move across to the Sierra de Guara - dubbed 'the land of the Lammergeier', we will be searching for this rarest of vultures, along with another popular birding target, the beautiful but elusive Wallcreeper, which comes down from the high Pyrenees to over winter at lower  altitudes on the south facing cliffs, canyons & dam walls found in the Guara. There are plenty of  other species to be found in this mountainous zone, including the likes of Blue Rock Thrush, Dartford Warbler & Citril Finch.
 

This week long birding tour includes private airport transfers from Barcelona International Airport, and accommodation throughout the  duration of the tour at carefully selected Guest Houses & Hotels around the route.

Wallcreeper - winter wonders of N spain birding tour

Wallcreeper is a 'holy grail' species for many birders and one of the main 'target' birds of our Winter Wonders tour. This species descends from the high Pyrenees with the onset of cold weather, and can be found at lower altitudes where it favours south facing cliffs and sheltered gorges.


Over a number of years we have discovered a number of reliable locations to help you observe Wallcreeper, check out this short video of the 'butterfly of the rock face'!
