For those on the Camino de Madrid I saw Great Bustards near, and between, Santervás de Campos and Grajal de Campos April 15 & 16. Magnificent birds.
I am green with envy! Hope the rest of your journey has surprises like that. Ultreia!
 
Amazing luck for you! My wife and I were just in Portugal's Alentejo region last week and failed to see any. They tend to hide in the wheat fields and are hard to detect.

Fabulous!
Listening to the call of the great bustard should be prescribed for good health 😂
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Any chance of seeing Bustards along the Camino Frances ?
Yes. I was told by folks at the Sahagún tourism office they can be found between Sahagún and Bericanos del Real Camino with a high likelihood of active leks. The distance between the two towns is 10km. So, tomorrow I’ll have a short day of walking but a long day of birding🤗

Wow. How wonderful! One more tick in the plus column for the Madrid.
(And on the Frances too??)
