ORNITHOLOGICAL ROUTES

          The province of Cadiz is one of the main passing through places for hundred thousand migratory birds. The Strait of Gibraltar coasts are therefore a magnificient observatory in periods when birds are going by.
              Besides, there are many wet areas declared as Conservation Areas ( Parks, Reserves and Natural Sites ), where lots of interesting aquatic birds live such as White- headed Ducks, Greater Flamingos, Purple Gallinules, Crested Coots, etc.
             In Cadiz mountain range there were once Lammergeiers, Black Vultures and Spanish Imperial Eagles. Nowadays the biggest population of Griffon Vultures in the Iberian Peninsula are known to live here in the mountains of Cadiz. It is the habitat of many small birds, easy to be observed in several of the sites which are signposted as Ornithological routes.
               ALJIBE- Nature Activities offer several ornithological routes in some of these areas, providing qualified staff and the required equipment ( telescopes, binoculars and experienced birdguides ).
