Huétor Fields, Granada Province, Spain.*

Yesterday but in reverse.
Ebird List for the walk. 

Juv Woodchat Shrike (Alcaudón Común / Lanius senator).
I was up early and after checking the Moths I started to walk down to Venta Neuva to collect the car, I took the shorter route.
I walked down the road to the old bars and then took the track but stayed on the town side of the Arroyo as far as the road into Huétor which I took then went through town and on to the mechanics, where I was told the car was still the same as the parts are going to take a few days to arrive.
