Extremadura, spring 2009 - not birds

And once more with feeling, after hapless vandalism erased a similar entry recently (on account of Knots Landing-style intrigue....)


Pearson senior's hearing is 180 degrees off as usual




They stopped laughing when they saw the puncture




It f-ed off ten minutes ago mate




"Thanks for the buffet, dumbos" - one of two geckos stuffed full of leps behind the security light




It took Dr. Doolittle less than five minutes to add a new member to the party at the villa




Horizontally capturing Ortolan and Rock Buntings on the same boulder




Which didn't impress her nearly as much as mountain goats drinking at the stream




"This place is SHIT"




note above mentioned canine in river, who later joined us for swims




'Birder's Wives' centrefold shoot, June 1974




"you look a bit warm love, just pop off that top for me eh?"




"Bonelli's to the left of us, Bluethroats to the right - here I am, stuck in the middle with you"..... Happy Days indeed
