A walk into the village and then a visit to the Cemetery.
After Breakfast Santi and I walked down into the village to the Bakery where we picked up a few supplies and then walked back up to the house, during the walk I saw
House Sparrow (Gorrión Común / Passer domesticus),
Feral Pigeon (Paloma Bravía / Columba livia),
Spotless Starling (Estornino Negro / Sturnus unicolor) and
White Wagtail (Lavandera Blanca / Montacilla alba).

The final location from the GOOD, the BAD and the UGLY.
|
Once we were back I headed out for a walk up at the Sad Hill Cemetery, a place I love to visit and have a one sided chat with someone I miss greatly but feel close to here.

An approaching bit of weather.

Once I got my head together I went for a longish loop walk around the site, as I walked through the Juniper trees I could hear good numbers of Fieldfare (Zorzal Real / Turdus pilaris) and as I came out into a more clear area I saw a flock of 42 birds flying back behind me along the hill side.

I continued on around the site seeing more
Fieldfare's as well as
Redwing (Zorzal Alirrojo / Turdus illacus),

Mistle Thrushes (Zorzal Charlo / Turdus viscivorus), Blackbird (Mirlo Común / Turdus merula),
Iberian Green Woodpecker (Pito Real / Picus sharpei),
Iberian Magpie (Rabilargo / Cyanopica cooki),
Great (Carbonera Común / Parus major) and Crested Tit (Herrerillo Capuchino / Lophophanes cristatus),
Short-toed Treecreeper (Agateador Común / Certhia brachydactyla),
Firecrest (Reyezuelo Listado / Regulus ignicapillus),
Wren (Chochin / Troglodytes troglodytes),
Robin (Petirrojo Europeo / Erithacus rubecula),

I returned to Santi's and spent the rest of the day catching up with a few bit whilst watching some nasty looking weather pass along the valley.
