Tuesday, January 15, 2008 - THE HOUBARA´S WEEK

by Juan Sagardía Pradera

I have visited Los Ancones area at Teguise between 7 and 13/I/2008 where I could see the adult males Houbara Bustards at display. At this time of the year, this often secretive species is easily detected and birds at display can be seen from the roads and tracks.

The images that you can see are the result of that amazing week. I hope you enjoy it.
