Huétor Fields, Granada Province, Spain.

A quick visit to the fields.

Curt Löfberg, Geoff Chapman, Me and Gunilla Löfberg at the Lucerne fields.

I spent the morning in the garden and then when I came in for a show spotted a message from Liza Kempe Chapman to say that she was down on the patch looking for the Little Bustard (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax) so I popped down for a quick bit of birding with them.

I met Liza, Geoff her husband and two friends Gunilla and Curt Löfberg from Sweden and we went to the Lucerne fields where we had views of a couple of the Bustards which were behaving a lot more elusively than yesterday.

Whilst there we also saw Northern Lapwing (Avefria Europea / Vanellus vanellus), Golden Plover (Chorlito Dorado Europeo / Pluvialis apricaia), White Wagtail (Lavandera Blanca / Montacilla alba), Crested Lark (Cogujada / Galerida cristata), Common Stonechat (Tarabilla Común / Saxicola torquata), Blackbird (Mirlo Común / Turdus merula), Black Redstart (Colirrojo Tizón / Phoenicurus ochruros) and Linnet (Pardillo Común / Carduelis cannabina).

After half an hour or so I made my way back home adding Grey Wagtail (Lavandera Cascadena / Motacilla cinerea), Serin (Verdecillo / Serinus serinus), Sardinian Warbler (Curruca Cabecinegra / Sylvia melanocephala), Collared Dove (Tórtola Turca / Streptopelia decaocto) and Cetti's Warbler (Ruisenor Bastardo / Cettia cetti) on the way.
