Owls
We spotted this female Iberian lynx when walking in Doñana National Park at La Rocina near El Rocio in Spain. There are only 70 of these highly endangered and secretive animals in the whole of the Doñana National Park which is 543 km² in area. So we were very fortunate to witness this beautiful animal
