Monday Morning Photo - Lopera Castle, Jaén

Lopera Castle, one of the best examples built by the Military Order of Calatrava in Jaén province, near the provincial border with Córdoba. The castle was built in 13th century on the site of a Moorish fortress, became a residence of nobility in 20th and today is visitable by prior arrangement.  Lopera Castle See the Monday Morning Photo list.

Monday Morning Photo - Wetlands in Castilla-La Mancha

I guess it's obvious  that Castilla-La Mancha has so many wetland areas, but being so flat. I'd never given it a thought. We were planning on visiting the famous Tablas de Daimiel National Park  but we also went to the four lagoons near our hotel - Lagunas de Alcazar de San Juan. My first real bird watching session from a hide revealed lots of flamingos and many other (unknown to me) water birds.
