Beschrijving
The limestone Sierra de Loja is a massif of the Subbética mountain range located at the western end of the province of Granada, with its highest point being Cerro de Santa Lucía at 1,671 meters. It is characterized by being a stony environment with little human influence (except for wind turbines). Many birds can be observed because the open country in the Sierra helps to make birds visible. There are several small pools in the mountains that are interesting to check out. The best known is Charca del Negro. This small pool is rain water fed and is usually dry by August / September.
The Sierra de Loja has breeding pairs of Steenarend, Havikarend, Slechtvalk, Blauwe Rotslijster, Rode Rotslijster, Zwarte Tapuit, Blonde Tapuit, Oehoe and Alpenkraai. Other birds that can be observed in the area are Rode Patrijs, Steenuil, Hop, Iberische Klapekster, Roodkopklauwier, Blauwe Ekster, Thekla's Leeuwerik, Rotszwaluw, Grijze Gors, Bergfluiter, Westelijke Orpheusgrasmus and Provençaalse Grasmus.
