Beschrijving
Wild, unpopulated countryside with self-sufficient farms and cork oak forests. Santa Clara Valley is a beautiful walking area and there's an excellent place to stay on the other side of the lake that has been built to blend into the surrounding area and attract birds - search for "Paradise in Portugal" or "Quinta do Barranco da Estrada". There's an excellent hide in the valley itself and "Paradise in Portugal" has a hide in their garden that is aimed specifically at Wielewaal - during July they have 40+ in the garden every morning! Quite stunning! Other birds you can see in the area are IJsvogel, Hop, Scharrelaar, Bijeneter, Waterral, Graszanger, Kleine Zwartkop, Europese Kanarie, Sint-Helenafazantje and Cetti's Zanger. But many more, see the birdlist and photo gallery below.
