About Amposta and the Ebro Delta
Amposta sits on the Ebro river near where it reaches the Mediterranean. The surrounding delta is flat, low-lying and crossed by rice fields, canals and lagoons, a mix of farmland and wetland that supports many bird species. The landscape changes with water levels and the seasons, and the area is well known among birdwatchers in Catalonia.
What the camera shows and when to watch
The camera is aimed at a nest box for barn owls, a species that often uses farm buildings and nest boxes in open country. Activity is usually easiest to notice at dusk and during the night, when the owls leave to hunt, and during the breeding season in spring and early summer, when parents bring prey back to the nest. Images depend on the view and light, so visits at different hours give different results.
Practical notes and nearby cameras
The delta has mild winters and warm, fairly dry summers, so spring and autumn are the most comfortable months for walking and birdwatching. The Riet Vell nature reserve is close by, and two of its lagoon cameras are listed on this site. Coastal cameras at L'Ametlla de Mar, roughly 25 km away, offer a view of the sea and beaches further south.
