We dropped further down the Mediterranean coast to the Delta de l'Ebre for a return visit, We were last here for only one night on our way south in 2009 and wanted to spend more time exploring this amazing wetland area.
It is a delta with a prosperous rice growing business, and enclosing a 70 square kilometre nature reserve.
It is well known for its flocks of wading birds and we spotted some species to ad to growing list. An Osprey was fishing and caught a large fish and flew of to eat it sitting on a post
Also new for us was a flock of Glossy Ibis feeding in the fields. This is just one example.
And a Squacco Heron
There was also an abundance of Dragonflies.
And the Flamingos were in good colour.
Our campsite was right on the shore in L'Ampola and was a
good base for our visit.
