There's still space on both our five-day breaks to
Spain:
March 16 to 21 - Bustards in Central
Spain
Cheap flights still available with Ryanair to
Valladolid (£2.79 plus taxes in each direction), so if you fancy visiting
the best area for great bustards in Europe, this is you chance. Inclusive
cost is £500. Two places left.
June 16 to 21 - Birds and butterflies in the
foothills of the Pyrenees
Again, cheap flights still available with
Ryanair. We should see a rich variety of butterflies, as well as
lammergeiers and many other exciting birds. Inclusive cost £550. Two
places left.
Both trips will be using top-quality hotels (paradores or similar).
Maximum group size is nine.
Unfortunately, we have decided to drop our plans to visit California,
and the Gourmet Birds Suffolk weekend. We are hoping that Fleur the
spaniel will be having puppies in mid-April, so May looks likely to be a
busy month.
Our first holiday of 2006 to Almeria produced some excellent
birdwatching, and we found out target bird (trumpeter finch) with ease.
However, we were appalled by the huge acreage of plastic greenhouses now
covering so much of Almeria, growing out of season vegetables for northern
Europe.
We already have plans for an autumn visit to Falsterbo in Sweden, but
we are also considering a week in Cyprus in September. If you are
interested in joining us there please let us know.
