TARIFA MIGRATION TOUR

We added an extra day to this trip which enhanced our sighting by giving us a full day in the Malaga region before we drove down to Tarifa. The migration in general was slow as the weather conditions allowed easy passage for the migrating raptors, they went over very high up during the first few hours of each day. It was very hot this year too, we saw many species but did not stay around in one place too long because of the high temperature. Having said all that, we still had great week of birding with some exciting sightings.
