In September 2017, we set off for Spain again with same David Kent, of Great Glen Wildlife, to look for Brown Bear.  There are only a few in the Iberian Peninsular - perhaps 200.

​

We worked really hard, and late into the evenings, in some known areas without much success.  You still get the buzz of anticipation and still see other creatures - in this case, wild boar, roedeer, etc.

​

Then, one morning, we met a young french chap who said he had been watching 6 bears while eating his breakfast.  So, off we went to his spot that evening and success - we saw two bears.  They were some distance away but much closer than we thought we would see them.  Really exciting.

​

We are returning to that spot again in September 2019 after a wolf hunt further west!!
