If you want to find the special birds of Extremadura, this is the book you need

Dave Gosney writes:

‘‘I’ve made 3 visits to Extremadura in the last 4 years and each time it has lived up to its billing as one of the top birding areas in Europe. Many of its birds are so big, so abundant and so spectacular that it would be hard to miss them but others such as Spanish Imperial Eagle, Bonelli’s Eagle, Roller, Little Bittern, Great Spotted Cuckoo and both sandgrouse could prove tricky to find unless you know the best spots to look for them. This book is full of detail on where those best spots are so you won’t miss out on your next trip”
