On the opposite bank, European pond terrapins are basking in the sun and, behind them, a herd of horses is grazing, preventing the scrub from taking over the grasslands. A pair of these eagles breed nearby, but this bird shows no wish to reappear and show itself better. The road follows the riverbank overgrown with reeds.

Both are common, really common, and both are essentially indistinguishable in non-breeding plumage. One interesting experience here was finding a baby terrapin on the road and picking it up to move it only for peter to call out a Common Iora , one of my two lifer families of the day. Next we drove to the local bird breeding centre.
