Hi there!!
The past weekend I made a country tour around Figarol ricefields located in the south east of Navarra, accompanied with my dad and sons.
We are already in winter, and the chances of detecting some waders,moustly lapwings are big, because this area is a wintering habitat with suitable flodded ricefields that offer what this kind of birds need to survive in those cold days.
Not many species are observed, but sometimes there is a surprise with a nice group of dunlins or black tailed godwits lingering around the different patches.
In the distance the small groups of ruffs advance.
Hard to see, but there were five black tailed godwits.
The lapwings sometimes can bee seen quite close.
Storks,lapwings,ruffs,starlings....all of them are favored with this kind of agriculture.
They stay together in groups but individually they keep a "respect" distance when feeding.
I also saw four nervous green sandpipers in a quite wide water poodle.
That's all for today!!
That's all for today!!
