Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Months on the Guadalquiver
An ornithologist visiting this country recognises at once that it is an ideal place for many kinds of birds. Food and nesting sites are plentiful and varied, and the country is very little disturbed. Moreover, this corner of Europe lies in the track of a vast number of birds of many kinds, migrating from Africa to the north of Europe in Spring, and from the north to their winter quarters in Africa in the autumn. Many of these migrants are induced, by prospects of food and seclusion, to break their journey for a few days in this congenial wilderness.
