Why did Oxyura Birdwatchig choose the Provinces of Cádiz, Sevilla, Huelva and Badajoz?

The province of Cadiz is located in the extreme southwest of the Iberian peninsula, just opposite the African continent, separated by so many just for a little ism of 14 km, for which makes it the best option for migratory passage of European birds, making it the ideal place for the latter rest and first stop for all migratory birds, thanks to its climate and its natural surroundings such as: Natural Space of Doñana (Salinas de Bonanza, Sanlúcar of Barrameda), Grazalema Natural Park, the Alcornocales Natural Park, the Strait of Gibraltar Natural Park and the Janda region, where it finds a permanent supply of food, before continuing its long way. Also because of these splendid conditions, climate and geography, makes it an ideal place for the presence of many species year-round, making it one of the richest places in terms of number of individuals and species that can be found in the world. can be observed throughout Europe.Besides, because of the proximity to the African continent, also we can observe exotic species, such as the spotted Vulture (Gyps rueppelli), Long-legged Buzzard (Buteo rufinus) Charran Bengali (Sterna bengalensis), White heron (Egretta alba),

Egretta dimorfa (Egretta gularis)among others.

In the province of Seville we can enjoy some extraordinary enclaves for bird watching such as the Brazo del Este Natural Park, Dehesa de Abajo, Sierra Norte Natural Park and Doñana Natural Park, in addition to these Natural Parks we can also observe steppe birds for their fields of crops.

The province of Huelva will surprise us with the doñana National Park, the Odiel Marshes Natural Park and the Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche Natural Park, this last magnificent place to observe the great birds of prey.

The province of Badajoz is exceptional for the observation of steppe birds, as well as the

Black Vulture and Black Stork.

For all these characteristics and through our experiences in these environments and others that are present in the provinces, we wanted to make known the most extraordinary corners, to all those people interested in the city bird watching.
