A late-evening visit to the Fields.
Ebird List for the Fields.

| Stuffed Courgettes, SO GOOD. |
I went down onto the fields once it started to cool down a little, where I set up the chairs and chilled watching the sun drop behind the hills out to the west before Paqui arrived
It was quiet when I first arrived except for a hunting Black-winged Kite (Elanio Común / Elanus caeruleus), which looked nice against the orange sky.

As Paqui was walking up towards where I was sitting, she pointed to my left as there was suddenly a group of 12 Montagu's Harriers (Aguilucho Cenizo / Circus pygargus) flying in from the west; they spent a while circling above us and out over the fields before dropping in to roost on the ground.
Other species seen included European Turtle Dove (Tórtola Europea / Streptopelia turtur), Red-necked Nightjar (Chotacabras Cuellirrojo / Caprimulgus ruficollis), Common Swift (Vencejo Común / Apus apus), Eurasian Stone Curlew (Alcaraván Común / Burhinus oedicnemus), European Bee-eater (Abejaruco Europeo / Merops apiaster), Eurasian Magpie (Urraca Común / Pica pica), Barn Swallow (Golondrina Común / Hirundo rustica), Western House Martin (Avión Común Occidental / Delichon urbicum), Common Blackbird (Mirlo Común / Turdus merula), Corn Bunting (Escribano Triguero / Emberiza calandra) and Perez's Frog (Rana Común / Pelophylax perezi).
