Hide for golden eagle photography and hide for crossbills and other woodland passerines photography
The golden eagle is one of the most impressive birds of prey in Europe. Photo Logistics offers you a hide to take pictures of this bird among the magnificent landscapes of the Natural Park of Sierra Espuña.
In this protected area a population of Arrui under control thanks to the management of hunting licenses. Golden eagles come to feed on their remains, once they are left in the field. Photo Logisitcs guides in the area check the food with the utmost care to avoid lead poisoning and always under the supervision of the technicians of the natural park.
This way we can give additional food to the eagles. The hide uses a spy-glass, which allows you to take pictures of birds flying over the feeding point before landing. The size of this hide is large enough for 2 photographers.
There are two windows that allow a panoramic view of the area and our guide will take you from the pre-arranged meeting place to the hide. You cannot leave the hide until our guide returns to pick up the photographer.In the case of the forest passerine hide, the star species is the crossbill, but up to 12 species can be photographed, in a fun morning trough session.
