La Janda



Once again we have to post on a couple of outings to La Janda. Not wanting to drive too far at the moment we keep returning to this area, which has been very successful for us.
We have seen quite a few raptors over our recent visits to this area, but have had no luck in seeing the Spanish Imperial Eagle. On this trip we did spot two juvenile birds at quite a distance. We stuck it out for a few hours observing them and finally got some great views of this majestic eagle.

Below are a few photos of some of the birds we saw on the day.
