Extremadura: 18th - 25th April 2009

We regard Extremadura as Spain's best-kept secret. A region where the lonely plains and hills provide a great refuge for some of Europe's most spectacular birds. An area where man and bird co-exist in perfect harmony. An area so varied with its abundant fauna and flora. Everything from Bustards to Bee-eaters and Storks to Sandgrouse - plus lots more!

Finland & Arctic Norway: 23rd May - 5th June 2009

This is an unashamedly bird-oriented holiday combining the wonders of the enormous Siberian forest with outstanding beauty of the Arctic tundra. In short, this holiday offers the most comprehensive itinerary with the best guides and at the best price when compared to any other UK operator. It is timed to perfection and our visit gives us the best possible chance of finding all of the 'northern' owls - something we manage every year. It also offers an excellent line-up of other resident species and summer visitors, many of which are difficult to find elsewhere in Europe. Plus it's also timed to avoid the dreaded mosquitoes spoiling our fun! We'll begin in Finland and gradually work our way up to Norway - as far as it is possible to go on the European mainland!
