Welsh Peregrine got it -- Coto Donana National Park, Andalucia, Spain. Sorry for the confusion Simon, as I am using the Clements list which still lumps Eurasian Teal with Green-winged Teal. I also apologize in advance for all the Hen vs Northern Harriers, Divers vs Loons, Murres vs Guillemots, Tengmalm's Owl vs Boreal Owl, Gray vs Grey, etc.
