This reedbed inhabitant was photographed in a very pretty park just at the side of the international airport in Barcelona. Here a lot of even rare species have their homes, not caring at all about the terrible noise from the landing planes that fly just overhead!

The Coto Doñana is one of the most important wetlands of southern Europe. When we got there, though, the water was almost all gone! Summers are extremely hot in southern Spain and even in October the temperatures are above 30°C, so that by the end of the summer there is no more water in the reservoirs! But some birds still linger around, as did this Cattle Egret.

Guadalhorce delta, Malaga, Spain

The Guadalhorce delta marsh was one of our favourite sites. It was being set up for birdwatching.
From a blind I could make out the Ibis on the far bank of an island behind some trees. He started to walk. Luckily he passed some open ground for a few seconds.
