""Welcome to the Day of the Birds at La Janda!" - what a nice welcome!

The rusty wires of the fences are favored as well by the Ziting Cisticolas …

"Yawning boaring this "World Day of the Birds!" the Little Egret decided:
A Turtle adored the heartthrob of her live, who didn't take notice of her:

Also a Marsh Harrier played hide and seek with us:
Another one delighted us with its flying skills. Incidentally we also saw two colorful males, who however stayed in a distance:
The normally so shy Red-legged Partridges in contrast posed for quite a while, whereby …
… they always kept attention:
Such a wonderful autumn day at La Janda with its cotton- and rice fields, channels and fields which are for so many animals a wonderful resting place!
Best regards
