Olvera, Spain - Greenfinch
July 2015. A small, but beautiful rock garden, el Peñón del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús (the Rock of the Sacred Heart of Jesus), can be found by climbing a few steps up from one of Olvera's main squares, the 'Plaza de Andalusia'. Although there aren't many birds at this time of year, it's still a lovely and peaceful place to explore on a summer's evening. Situated in the north-eastern corner of the Cadiz province and with a population of about 8,500, the beautiful Andalucian town of Olvera is one of the larger "pueblo blancos" (white villages) in the area with white houses, steep and narrow streets leading up to an old Arab fortress at the top of town. Close by is an impressive church, the 'Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación' (the Parish of Our Lady of the Incarnation). There are plenty more photos of Olvera and other Spanish towns/locations if you take a look at my 'Albums' page, www.flickr.com/photos/36623892@N00/sets/ - thank you.
