It's this terrific range of habitats, along with its geographical position on a major migration route, that gives Catalonia a greater variety of birdlife than anywhere on the peninsular, including Andalucia, with 95% of Iberia's and 50% of the whole Palearctic region's recorded bird species. It also has the highest number of breeding species in Iberia and over 40% of its birds are of conservational concern.
