Portugal

Saltpans are very good location for birding. Most of the birds in saltpan areas will consist of waders, terns, and gulls. If you are patient you could have a great day, most of the time these birds will come to you!

Centro de Valverde, Doñana

Spring is always a great time to visit the area of Doñana, especially el Centro de Valverde. We really enjoyed this trip last year, so we planned it again this year at the end of April. Once again we had 2 great days of birding.

Here are some of the photos we managed to take...
