Birdwatching at El Molino del Conde

"In all a huge pleasure.
Despite having visited many countries around the world, I found the variety of species and sub-species [at El Molino] to be amazing"
Nic Channing Williams: June 2006


Just sit on the terraces and it is all there to see. One guest identified
Red Rumped Swallow, Hoopoe, Golden Oriole, Skylark, Crested Lark, Wren (nesting in an old swallow's nest), Great Grey Shrike, Woodchat Shrike, Collared Dove, Swift, Spanish Sparrow, Rock Sparrow, Goldfinch, Siskin, Serin!! and some buntings.

Nightingales can be heard and sometimes seen, and at dawn and dusk you can hear the distinctive call of the Scops Owl. We also have the local Azure Winged Magpie and an occasional visit from a Bonelli's Eagle

For those who want to get the most out of birdwatching in Andalucia, we can arrange for a professional guide from "Basically Birding" to visit or to take you to the best local spots. She will take you to mountain crags and to wetlands (for the famous flamingoes), and has a decent Swarovski telescope.
