    I grew up with the red-legged partridge of the Mediterranean spiny thickets, but I'd never seen this one, a bird of agricultural landscapes which has suffered serious populations declines in France and elsewhere and Europe.
    This was a lovely way to close this little Dutch trip!     Posted 4 years ago
