This time in addition to the Stand of Andalucia Tourism Board (Marquee 2 &#8211; Stands 8, 9 &amp; 10) we will be present at the Andalucia Wildlife Guides stand (Marquee 1 &#8211; Stand 30) as well.<\/p>\n<p>Remarkably, on Thursday 17 the Andalucia Tourism Board will be sponsoring the welcome reception at the Restaurant Marquee including a welcome speech by Tim Appleton.<\/p>\n<p>Spain and particularly Andalucia are among the top European destination for international birders and nature lovers.
