Antonio Tàrries and Dolors Marín, a retired Catalan couple, were the sole attendees of an ornithological guided tour at Parc Natural de ses Salines, held as part of Sant Francesc de s’Estany’s festivities. The tour, led by environmental educators Paquita Riera and Eduard Palau, showcased various bird species, including flamingos and xerraires.

The visit included a variety of environments, from dry ponds to historic towers, enriching their appreciation for the area’s avian life.
