Great Spotted Woodpecker (Pico Picapinos / Dendrocopos major). |
I parked and walked along the Arroyo as usual and I took the Northern side all the way down to the Railway bridge, the
Little Bustards (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax) were still in the fields where they usually were but the Lucerne was getting taller and making finding them more difficult. I only counted 27 but I am sure there were more birds there.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixfhHxg2wQ6uesYhlbnS9ibbDP4ubprgQEDqN96PKkRqdkrFGgeD6BQF3IOUSKJJWVa5Kr23c73EwnbQ-sHXVGzw5BAgfXvj-ZdelEUzCB0Uh9gBHI9UaOfMPXe3gzI-2Xnkxk7gSvmYw/w640-h448/27th-Feb-21-10.jpg) |

Hirundines moving through along the Arroyo.

On the far stretch of the Arroyo there were good numbers of Hirundines moving through including
House (Avión Común / Delichon urbica) and
Crag Martins (Avión Roquero / Ptyonoprogne rupestris),
Barn (Golondrina Común / Hirundo rustica) and
Red-rumped Swallow (Golondrina Dáurica / Hirundo daurica) along with
Bluethroat (Pechiazul / Luscinia svecica) and Cetti's Warbler (Ruisenor Bastardo / Cettia cetti).![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOeL0tQ5oRMqNgeiG7wKrao5apiQpwtPCb14yx0IVx-hu9Wl7cypri6h3U4UJrHeAtB2h_rLZq8Nh8uMOghvJMkH0tOS3idOVf6x7yMpyZ6Uun73P1BdyuMIO33siMGIrfWZCrgv-cMx0/w640-h582/27th-Feb-21-12.jpg) |
