Description
Parque Forestal Valdebebas - Felipe IV consists of a young forest of native vegetation, though an area to the south does have older trees. Most of the area is dominated by stone pines, which hold all of the common birds of the area. The park has several streams and and two small lakes. These attract birds such as Dağ kuyruksallayanı, Çulhakuşu, Su kılavuzu (uncommon), Yalıçapkını and sometimes Angit. Some other ducks, like Boz ördek, might occasionally show up. Waders, such as Yeşil düdükçün can also appear. There have been records of Kocagöz. During winter, the top part of the park is very good for Kızıl ardıç, with Tarla ardıcı also being present. Some raptors like Kara akbaba might fly over, but this isn't a good spot for them. Kukumav is present, however, the park is closed at night, making other owl species sightings scarce. Turna might ocassionally fly over during winter.
