Birding


For each species we have created a file containing the basic information presented in a simple and visual way for finding out more and localizing it. As well as the photograph and the song, codes have been added to indicate the habitat where the species is most commonly found, and the approximate degree of difficulty associated with finding it (low, average or high). A brief description of its status is also given and, if necessary, advice for finding it. Finally a map is added showing a selection of the best areas for observing it in the breeding period.

In some cases it is better to find the species in the winter or in areas bordering the province of Lleida; then the map appears blank and the appropriate suggestions are given in the text. Foreseeably, (and more so in the case of birds due to their mobility) the status, distribution and the populations described here will vary in some cases, and that is why we will be very grateful to receive your contributions.

    Description


    Like the black-bellied sandgrouse, having suffered a serious decline in population, this species can now only be found in the drylands of the Aiguabarreig, between Seròs and Granja d'Escarp, and on the Alfés-Castelldans drylands. Even so, the whole of the population of this species in Catalan territory is concentrated in the El Segrià.
