Birdingextremadura

Birdingextremadura 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.

A wonderful day yesterday in the Sierra de Bejar watching one of Spain’s rarest butterflies, the Yellow-banded Skipper (Pyrgus sidae). It is a annual treat for me!

Yesterday it was fascinating to watch this (well-documented) tool-use by Egyptian Vultures. This bird used the stone to crack open the Ostrich egg that had been placed in front of the hide at La Cañada, near Monfragüe. Both Griffon and Cinereous Vultures had tried to crack open the egg by pecking or pressing on it using their feet, without success. One wonders if this individual had ever been to the right area of Africa to encounter an Ostrich egg before.

The Splendid Cruiser (Macromia splendens) is a very scarce and localised dragonfly. It is invariably seen in flight, cruising over pools in rocky rivers in well wooded valleys, and not easy to photograph. We watched at least six individuals yesterday at one site in Las Hurdes in the north-west of Extremadura, and were then delighted to find this one perched in a shrub on the side of the valley.

Some butterflies from the last few days in the Gredos Mountains. Presumably because of the cold and wet spring, butterfly numbers were generally low and some species were not on the wing. However we did find 54 species, including Green-underside Blue (Glaucopysche alexis), Blue-spot Hairstreak (Satyrium spini), Panoptes Blue (Scolitantides panoptes), Sooty Copper (Lycaena tityrus), a rather late and tatty Spanish Fritillary (Euphydryas desfontainii) and Spanish Argus (Aricia morronensis).
