Huétor Fields, Granada Province, Spain.

Patch birding again.
Ebird List.
 
Grey Heron (Garza Real / Ardea cinerea).
Usual walk along the fields to the Plantation and back again. Species included Little Bustard (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax), Northern Lapwing (Avefria Europea / Vanellus vanellus), Grey Heron (Garza Real / Ardea cinerea), Western Cattle Egret (Garcilla Bueyera / Bubulcus ibis), Black-winged Kite (Elanio Común / Elanus caeruleus) and after the list finished I sat by the puddle where the irrigation channel leaks and saw Corn Bunting (Triguero / Emberiza calandra) and Spanish Sparrow (Gorrión Moruno / Passer hispaniolensis).

As I walked back to the car the Black-winged Kite spent some time hunting in the fading light.
