“I’m looking to get so close to raptors and birds from the plains that I can look them in the eye and take lots of photos.” That is what La Sabina’s clients want, and what the company has been helping them to get since 2008. Join La Sabina on a bird photo trip to Catalonia, north-east Spain, and prepare to photograph lammergeiers, Bonelli’s eagles, golden eagles, little bustards, bee-eaters, rollers, vultures and more from private photography hides. A standard bird photo trip with La Sabina includes hides, permits, en-suite accommodation, meals and guiding. Tailor-made programmes are also available for you to select the species and the pace. Within easy reach of Barcelona airport. Prices for a four-night trip start at €795 (£685 approx).
