Lagune of Fuente de Piedra May 1–2 2009
Part 8
The last but one chapter: the ruffs! Never in my life had I expected to come so relatively close to these wonderful shorebirds.
Mr. and Mrs. Ruff obviously enjoy the rest on their long migration!
Another ruff …
… first had to eat to its fill …
… and quench its thirst:
The most colorful ruff knows, that there is a long further flight expecting him and …
… trains ist wings:
Well, if this beauty cannot impress a female during mating season, than I won´t understand anything!
Part 9
At *our* plank it became dark in the meantime, but …
… it wasn´t only me, who took photos …
… until the very last moment!
And so we could enjoy …
… the sight of this flamingo group …
… in the last sunlight!
Those were unforgettable beautiful days in Fuente de Piedra! - And we hope, that the good weather will keep, because next week we are driving toward the Extremadura. Whoopee! 
Best regards
