The first part of the spring journey takes us from the Spanish inland to the rugged Atlantic and to the Mediterranean. While the North is still covered by snow and ice, here, the first signs of the awakening show up. Rabbits with their young, flocks of cranes, colorful bee-eaters, courting bustards as well as extraordinary exotic species – all enjoy the warming sunrays. We travel further, through the French Provence and into the Alps: flamingos perform their bizarre dancing rituals, wild horses storm through the wetland, meanwhile groundhogs wake from hibernation.

On its way to the North, the spring transforms Europe’s landscapes into a blooming garden. It appears in all of its tempers, stormy and misty at times, then again balmy and bathed in light.
