First time I've seen birds from Spain. Impressive. The stone curlews are especially exotic.

Thanks Bob for commenting. Yes, the stone curlews were a lucky find as was the Little Bittern - the first I had ever seen.

Great pictures of birds we would never see here. The white headed duck looks like he is wearing a 'Donald
Duck Mask' as a disguise.

Thanks Tpharm, I agree about the duck he does look like something from a fairground. The Coot's duckling looks like ET in red - see photo.

Very nice. I really like that last one.
When I was in the Navy back around 1971, my little ship stopped off for a day or two in Alicante. If I remember correctly it was on the "Spanish Riviera"
I remember buying a straw mat and lying on the beach.

Sounds like a happy memory, glad I brought it back to you and thanks for your nice comment. I expect you would find Alicante very different now and over populated.

I spent quite a bit of time in Barcelona, a day or two in Alecante and maybe one or two other Mediterranean cities (also a coupe of less notable Atlantic coast cities). I would go back to Barcelona in a heartbeat.
