Best known as the Urban Birder, David Lindo lives in M\u00e9rida, the capital city of Extremadura.

Cornalvo Natural Park, also in Extremadura, is designated a Special Protection Area for Birds and is home to 175 species, including Blue kites, Griffon vultures, and Booted eagles. The park also features the Roman-built Cornalvo Dam.<\/p>

David will be on Pelee Island as Guest Birder for the Springsong 2022 weekend, May 6-8, and will present his talk at the Pelee Island Winery on Sunday morning.<\/p>

A naturalist and photographer, David is author of\u00a0How To Be an Urban Birder<\/em>\u00a0and was voted the 7th most influential person in wildlife by BBC Wildlife<\/em> magazine. He is vice-president of Britain\u2019s Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust and a Fellow of the International League of Conservation Writers.
