Every trip to Spain, we bird at the wonderful little preserve in Motril – Carcha de Suárez.

Tucked in between high-rises and businesses, it’s a treasure with lots of birds. Here are a few we saw the other morning, starting with a couple of Western Swamphens.

In the same family, Eurasion Moorhens add noise and color to the lagoons.

We saw 31 species including the Red-gnobbed Coot which is endangered. Stay tuned for a another nice mix in the next post.

Buena observación de aves, dondequiera que estés.
