LESVOS, GREECE

Lesvos holds several south-eastern European specialities including Krüper's & Western Rock Nuthatches, Sombre Tit, Olive-tree Warbler, Masked Shrike, Cretzschmar's and Cinereous Buntings. Many other southern European species also occur inc. Hoopoe, European Bee-eater, European Roller and Eastern Olivaceous and Great Reed-warblers. Lesvos is also an excellent migration spot and many passing migrants move through the island including the occasional rarity or two. The tour is based at one of the best hotels on the island, which is conveniently situated in Skala Kallonis and has excellent birding sites nearby.

SPAIN: COTO DOÑANA & EXTREMADURA

This spring tour to Spain covers two of the finest birdwatching sites in mainland Europe. These hold several specialities that either can be found nowhere else in Europe or are difficult elsewhere inc. Crested Coot, White-headed Duck, Spanish Eagle, Great and Little Bustards and Red-necked Nightjar. This trip is suitable both for those on a first birdwatching holiday to continental Europe and for those wishing to catch up with the specialities of the region.

These trips are run by Birdfinders - please contact us for further details or check out their website  www.birdfinders.co.uk
