Birding Extremadura offers customised birding holidays. Registered: OA-CC-00052 Combined these are the ingredients for a successful and memorable holiday.

Just two and half hours from Madrid airport, you will find yourself in the heart of Extremadura. It is one of the last remaining areas unchanged for generations in Western Europe, endowed with some of the continent's best birding. Thanks to traditional land use practice and an impressive diversity of habitats, you can see an extraordinary variety of birds. Important for the conservation of breedin

g populations of species like Black Vulture, Spanish Imperial Eagle, Lesser Kestrel, Great and Little Bustard, Black Stork and wintering concentrations of Common Crane, an incredible richness of raptors, and excellent for sought after species like Bonelli's Eagle, Black-winged Kite, Purple Swamphen, Pin-tailed and Black-bellied Sandgrouse, Red-necked Nightjar, Black Wheatear, Azure-winged Magpie…as well as other typical Iberian species. It is no wonder that this unspoilt area of Spain draws birders from around the world, a place which enthrals and people return to again and again. One can add to the birds, the butterflies, flowers including orchids and other wildlife, the wonderfully evocative scenery, magnificent medieval towns, pre-Roman and Roman sites, good accessibility and a hearty rural cuisine.

Common Greenshank are easy to find in Extremadura in winter with even quite small bodies of water hosting individuals, whilst on the rice fields flocks of them can be seen.

Focusing on small birds: a busy foraging female Lesser Spotted Woodpecker, a vigilant Alpine Accentor and a Tree Sparrow and Spanish Sparrow sharing a perch.

The Villuercas Mountains are just an hour away from where we live and are always a spectacular place to visit. This gully is where I first found a wintering Wallcreeper in Extremadura (back in 2008!).

The Egyptian Mongoose (or Ichneumon) is a common carnivore in Extremadura. Recent DNA studies suggest that the species may have arrived naturally across the ancient land-bridge between the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa, whilst other theories postulate introduction by the Romans or Arabs. The presence of this individual as I watched it today brought upon a mobbing response by Common Chiffchaffs (8 individuals), Cetti’s Warbler (4), Sardinian Wrabler (2), Zitting Cisticola (2), House Sparrow (2), Penduline Tit (4) and Bluethroat (1).

Seeing Great Bittern (Avetoro) is always a treat! This one flew past us at Parque Ornitológico - Birding Saucedilla this morning. extremadura

On the rice fields today in Central Extremadura: thousands of Common Crane, hundreds of Glossy Ibis and a solitary Great Flamingo.

The warm sunshine of a late October afternoon brought plenty of activity beside pools in the granite landscape near Malpartida de Cáceres yesterday: egg-laying Western Willow Spreadwings (Lestes viridis) and basking Spiny-footed Lizard (Acanthodactylus erythrurus) and Geniez’s Wall Lizard (Podocarcis virescens).
