A quick walk along the Arroyo.
 |
| Corn Bunting (Triguero / Emberiza calandra). |
I dropped down to the Arroyo for my walk, the biggest change was that the Arroyo was no longer flowing. I parked and walked the Northern side of the Arroyo seeing just 2 female
Little Bustard (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax) but guessing there may have been more birds hiding. |

Other species included Corn Bunting (Triguero / Emberiza calandra), Crested Lark (Cogujada / Galerida cristata), loads of
House Martins (Avión Común / Delichon urbica),
Barn Swallows (Golondrina Común / Hirundo rustica) and high up in the flock a single
Common Swift (Vencejo Común / Apus apus).

| Water Pipit (Bisbita Alpino / Anthus spinoletta). |
Once I crossed the road and checked the pools that remained seeing
Reed Bunting (Escribano Palustre / Emberiza schoeniclus),
Little Ringed Plover (Chorlitejo Chico / Charadrius dubius),
Green Sandpiper (Andarrios Grande / Tringa ochropus),
Cetti's Warbler (Ruisenor Bastardo / Cettia cetti),
Water Pipit (Bisbita Alpino / Anthus spinoletta), Spanish (Yellow) Wagtail (Lavandera Boyera / Motacilla flava iberiae) and
Iberian Magpie (Rabilargo / Cyanopica cooki).
