A walk around a special Place for me.
Santi and I headed up to the Sad Hill Cemetery, on the way we could see the devastation the fire earlier in the year had caused, it tore through the area but started quite a way up the valley towards Lerma, I was pleased to see it did not reach the Cemetery.

We walked around for an hour or so finding lots of what looked like
Alpine Gentian (Gentiana alpina) but they were flowering much later than down in the south in Sierra Nevada.
Other species seen were lots of
Song (Zorzal Común / Turdus philomelos) and
Mistle Thrushes (Zorzal Charlo / Turdus viscivorus), Blackbird (Mirlo Común / Turdus merula),
Redwing (Zorzal Alirrojo / Turdus illacus),
Serin (Verdecillo / Serinus serinus),
Wren (Chochin / Troglodytes troglodytes),
Iberian Green Woodpecker (Pito Real / Picus sharpei) and
Goldfinch (Jilguero / Carduelis carduelis).

During the evening we again went down to the Bar and had a drink.
