Huétor Fields, Granada Province, Spain.

A late visit to the fields.
Ebird List for the fields.
 
I met Paqui down on the fields, where we set up the chairs and watched the sun go down. During this visit we saw an increase in the wintering flock of Little Bustards (Sisón Común / Tetrax tetrax) when 8 birds flew over us just as it was going dark.
Other species included Eurasian Stone Curlew (Alcaraván Común / Burhinus oedicnemus) x19, a fly over Common Snipe (Agachadiza Común / Gallinago gallinago) and Green Sandpiper (Andarrios Grande / Tringa ochropus), Grey Heron (Garza Real / Ardea cinerea), Little Owl (Mochuelo Europeo / Athene noctua), Crested Lark (Cogujada Común / Galerida cristata) and Common Blackbird (Mirlo Común / Turdus merula).
