The Pin Tailed and Black Bellied Sandgrouse are one of the most attractive and sought after species in Europe and the classic bird of the dry steppe. They are notoriously difficult to photograph, too. Photo Logistics now offers the possibility to photograph them from a hide located in the depression of the Ebro (Zaragoza). The hides were built close at ground level close to a drinking pool, but you don’t need to lay down, the hide is built taking advantage on a slope and so you can be conveniently seated. Our hides allow you to get pictures of the birds reflected on the water while drinking or when they are soaking their feathers to carry water back to the nest. These hides have one-way glass in order to make the photographer completely invisible and so allow natural behaviour to be captured.

Once the service has been booked, we will agree a meeting point near the closest village to the hides. From here a Photo Logistics’ guide will take you to the hide before sunrise. This hide is used for sessions up until noon.

Type of service: hides at a drinking pool with one way mirror windows.
