Catalonia is an exceptional place for birds and this book will help you find far more birds than you are likely to manage on your own. It gives you exact details of where the best birds were found as recently as 2017 or 2018.

Dave Gosney writes:

‘‘Here’s a guide to birdwatching in Catalonia from the point of view of a visiting birder. Based on my own experiences there in 2017 and 2018, it points out that some species are harder to find than other publications might lead you to believe but it also gives you up-to-date and exact details of where many of the most exciting birds can still be located. So, if you want to see birds such as Bonelli’s Eagle, Little Bittern, Little Bustard, Roller, Black-bellied and Pin-tailed Sandgrouse, Moustached Warbler, Spectacled Warbler, Black Woodpecker, Citril Finch, Rock Thrush and Red-billed Leothrix this book tells you which sites are the most reliable and which ones are not.”
