Day 3: Horta de Sant Joan, Tarragona

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

Bird watching is much harder here than on the coast. The Merlin app hears a lot of birds, and so does our guide, but bird watching by eye is not so easy. So today there are also many photos of insects and plants. They are more approachable. Therefore we have today no birds.
