Huétor Fields, Granada Province, Spain.

Staying local again but getting a bit Exotic.
Ebird List for the Dog S**T Track.

Little Bustards (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax).
I parked at the start of the Dog S**T Track and walked to the far end and then across to the road and back around to the car, on the way I saw 21 Little Bustards (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax), a few Stone Curlews (Alcaraván Común / Burhinus oedicnemus), Northern Lapwing (Avefria Europea / Vanellus vanellus), Skylark (Alondra Común / Alauda arvensis), 2x Bluethroats (Pechiazul / Luscinia svecica), Tree Sparrow (Gorrión Molinero / Passer montanus) and a rather unexpected Yellow-faced Grassquit (Tiaris olivaceus) which must have done a runner from a local cage, thanks to Ed MacKrill for the ID.

Later I went for a walk around the fields finding
Black-winged Kite (Elanio Común / Elanus caeruleus), Little Owl (Mochuelo Europeo / Athene noctua), Tree Sparrow (Gorrión Molinero / Passer montanus) and Iberian  Magpie (Rabilargo / Cyanopica cooki).
Skylark (Alondra Común / Alauda arvensis).
