After a trip into Loja we decided to spend the afternoon up on the terrace relaxing and as we did just that I saw several species including a Short-toed Eagle (Culebrera Europeo / Circaetus gallicus), as well as an immature Golden (Águila Real / Aquila chrysaetos), a male Montagu's Harrier (Aguilucho Cenizo / Circus pygargus), Common Buzzard (Busardo Ratonero / Buteo buteo), Common Kestrel (Cernicalo Vulgar / Falco tinnunculus), Sparrowhawk (Gavilán Común / Accipiter nisus), Alpine Swift (Vencejo Real / Apus melba), Hoopoe (Abubilla / Upupa epops), Iberian Green Woodpecker (Pito Real / Picus sharpei), European Bee-eater (Abejaruco Común / Merops apiaster), Golden Oriole (Oropéndola / Oriolus oriolus), Red-rumped Swallow (Golondrina Dáurica / Hirundo daurica), Grey Wagtail (Lavandera Cascadena / Motacilla cinerea) and a more surprising male Hawfinch (Picogordo / Coccotraustes coccotrauetes) which flew close to us and landed in a pine a couple of houses down the hill.
