Finding Birds in Andalucia

August 2009.

Compared to other publications covering the same area, this one:

• Provides the most useful maps - so you can easily find your way to the best bits of wetland, plain or woodland
• Includes GPS co-ordinates to help you find the right turnings, parking spaces or viewing points
• Highlights the best areas only - and summarises the key attraction in the first paragraph so you can easily decide whether to read on or bother to visit the site
• Has a map on the inside cover which serves as an index so you can easily find any site in the book
• Is light and portable (and cheap)

"When I was planning a birding visit to Spain I found myself bewildered by the sheer volume of information available. There are some very good books covering the area including four published in the last three years. Then there are loads of trip reports on the internet - I actually sifted through over 450 pages of online text, for Andalucia alone. Sometimes it was a struggle to make sense of it all 'where do they mean? how do you get there? is that the same site under a different name?' And when I got to Andalucia I found some sites that weren't described in the books, some that turned out to be better or worse than I'd hoped and some that were difficult to locate based on what had previously been published. This new book summarises all that I found out, based on my hours of research as well as my experiences in Andalucia in the winter and spring of 2008/09. I've done all that work so you don't have to!"
