STORK COUNTRY


As we headed east below the Picos de Europa we passed through a stretch of around 50km inhabited by an amazing number of storks. Their large untidy nests seem to inhabit the top of any tower, church, chimney or other suitable high point. These were a lovely sight and I miss their ungainly appearance and strange beak clicking. The best cluster we saw can be seen in the photo.
