Sunday 13th May (Not too Many Birds but lots of Heat)


Mr. Kite looked out of The Joint window into a cork oak to see an azure-winged magpie. On the ground two crested larks strutted along with their crests pointing up.

Today Mr. Kite was going 'roller watching' before the Spanish Grand Prix. To cut a long story short the views he had were not worth mentioning because the birds were too far away.

On his return trip to The Joint Mr. Kite passed two landmarks. The first was that he had cycled one thousand miles this years. At this point in the road a few years ago Mr. Kite and The Joint collided with a Ladder Snake. Luckily The Joint was not injured but the poor old snake was.

Mr. Kite returned to The Joint put on his shirt and went to the bar to watch the Grand Prix with The Spaniards.

Late in the afternoon Mr. Kite cycled to the Plaza de Toros and the nearby viewing point looking north from Casceres. In the warm air vultures and eagle glided, circled and soared over the plain.

Mr. Kite returned to The Joint and enjoyed a tipple of 1906 Reserva Especial. Cheers.
