Tierra de Campos
A privileged place for bird
watching because in its agricultural land, riversides and
wetlands you can find steppeland birds and large numbers
of water birds in the La Nava,
Boada and Pedraza lakes.
The district has three Natura
2000 areas with the SPA classification, designated by their
important steppe-land bird
populations like great bustards,
little bustards, Montagu’s harriers and kestrels.
