By the time I reached the coast it was raining but when I arrived I soon found the bird feeding in a large concrete storm channel with several Black-winged Stilts (Ciguenela Común / Himantopus himantopus). |

After getting nice views even in the rain I left and headed to Barbara and Dereks as I was going to stay with them as we were heading out with AndyPatterson in the morning for a days birding at La Janda.
