Years ago when the world was young and all was right with the world (i.e. 1968) I saw a Rufous Bush Chat in SW Spain. However, despite regularly visiting SW Spain over the last three years at the 'right' time of the year, I have utterly failed to connect with the species. OK only one of these trips was a full-on birding jaunt, but my wife's pretty understanding and I have spent a fair bit of time in the field. Not a darn sign of the damn bird though! I've tried several 'supposed' sites - a number near Tarifa, Bolonia, some towards Jimena, Laguna de Medina, etc. Nothing!
So any suggestions of where to look this August? I'll be based 40 minutes south of Jerez (Alcala de los Gazules) for a couple of weeks (though I'll be driving over from Granada where I'll be staying for a few days),
