Bonellis Eagle above Padul, Granada

[El Perro Negro]

Was out with the guys from http://www.birdwatchalpujarras.com yesterday in the wetlands near Padul. Lots of smaller birdlife around, reedwarblers, corn buntings, weavers, stonechat, kestrels etc

The highlight of the day though, totally unexpected, was the unmistakable sight of a Bonellis Eagle. This is quite a scare bird in Europe and only a few hundred pairs remain, so a good sighting. No photos though unfortunately.
