Some cool birds I saw on a uni trip in the Alcazar de San Juan lakes. Definitely the best thing I've ever seen in Ciudad Real. Also it was really cool seeing wild flamingos.

Black-tailed godwit (Limosa limosa)

Northern shoveler (Spatula clypeata)

Black-necked grebe (Podiceps nigricollis)

SACRED MONASTERY AND CASTLE OF CALATRAVA LA NEW

Yesterday I was visiting this magnificent site located in the province of Ciudad Real. It is one of those unknown gems that are scattered throughout our country and that are not as famous as others but that keep a lot of history among their stones and that are worth a visit.

Former Templar fortress of the Order of Calatrava, intended to stop the advance of the Arabs during the Reconquest and which, later, during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs, became a Monastery. In its decline it was a victim of the great Lisbon earthquake in 1755 because the aftershocks reached here.

Currently, after a series of restoration and consolidation campaigns, it has an interesting tour explaining what life was like in a castle-fortress.

Accompanied by good footwear and the courage to climb slopes, you will be surprised.

Here and here you have more information.
