Spain, May 2026

In May 2026m I visited the Segovia area which is located 119km north of Madrid as part of a trip with Apex Adventures who run wildlife photographic tours to the UK, Europe and further afield. Here are a lot of fantastic bird species that either don't occur, are vanishingly rare or just hard or impossible to photograph in the UK. The photographic opportunities are superb with a series of excellent hides which belong to Vultour Naturaleza, a local wildlife tour operator and who provided the locations and hides, the vehicles and the drivers. I also added best part of 50 new species to my year list. It was a brilliant trip and one I can definitely recommend.
