About this tour

A morning with Blue Nature offers a compact introduction to the birds around Madrid. This outing lasts three to four hours and concentrates on one area rather than trying to fit the whole region into a short visit. It suits travelers who want time in the field without setting aside a full day.

There are three possible regional settings: the wooded mountain landscapes of the Sierra de Guadarrama, wetland sites in Las Vegas, and open country on the eastern steppes. The choice depends on the season, weather, access and where birds are active. These are alternative routes, so a morning does not necessarily include all three habitats.

Birds to look for include Spanish Imperial Eagle, Spanish Sparrow, Iberian Magpie, Iberian Green Woodpecker, Iberian Grey Shrike, Cinereous Vulture and Great Bustard. The selection of habitat affects the opportunities, and a species named for the tour is a possibility rather than a promised sighting.

The meeting point is Madrid, with guiding and transport covered by the price. Parties are limited to eight people. Rates are per person and decrease with party size: €200 for one traveler, €100 each for two, €70 each for three, and €50 each for four to eight. Dates are arranged on request; the precise outing can be adapted to the birds that interest your party.
