interesting countryside. It seems to be worth the trip to find the delightful stone chat bird:)
I do'nt think i have ever seen a greater density of both Stonechats and Corn Buntings than around Castro Verde - mind you they had locally fledged.On almost every second post in the fields were SC's and CB's singing and perching everywhere.......
