Central zone of the
province of Valladolid
The nature area of the Castronuño-Vega del Duero riverside,
and the banks of the Duero
and Pisuerga rivers, are important ecosystems for birdlife within the area of action.
Owls and Northern wheatears
perch on the cairns while the
shy quail sings in the wheat
fields. In years when there is
rainfall, migratory species like
shorebirds and anatidae come
to rest here in las Navas (waders like calidrids, tringas, crab
plovers, anatidaes, etc.) and
among the birds that nest here
are the black-headed gull and
black-winged stilt.
