‘This is much more than just an update of my previous book, ‘Finding Birds in Northern Spain’. Compared to that book, this one covers a much smaller area - from the mountains of the Picos de Europa to the plains of Lleida - in even more detail than before. it is based largely on recent visits to the area in 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2010 and is full of first-hand observations showing eaxactly where I found the best birds.’
