Birds that winter along the Algarve are always of special interest and well worth the search. Here we find glorious scenery of which Cape St. Vincent is, perhaps, the most memorable if for no other reason than for its rich collection of extremely rare plants which are in full flower in February. Several early orchid species, fritillary, wild daffodils, anemones and even wild tulip. Gardens are always a riot of colour as are the roadsides.
Strawberries are available on the menu.
Bees are active as are a wealth of other insects, including a few interesting Butterflies. In the interest of their Conservation we feel sure that it will be appreciated if fuller lists of both the flora and fauna are withheld at this stage. In a few areas the ground is covered with spiny vegetation but there is little tru clambering over rocky terrain. Gradients are slight. Only 1 holidays of 10 days duration is available and scheduled for mid February.
