Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park Many species of lark live on the steppe, including the rare Dupont's lark ("Chersophilus duponti") and there are also little bustards ("Tetrax tetrax") and stone curlews ("Burhinus oedicnemus"). Sea birds include yellow-legged gulls ("Larus michahellis"), terns, razorbills ("Alca torda"), shags, the occasional puffin ("Fratercula arctica") and Cory's ("Calonectris diomedea") and Balearic shearwaters ("Puffinus mauretanicus"). The wealth of animal life provides prey for a number of raptors: ospreys ("Pandion haliaetus"), peregrine falcons ("Falco peregrinus"), kestrels ("Falco tinnunculus"), and eagles. Approximately 15 species of reptile are found in the park, including Italian wall lizards ("Podarcis sicula"), ocellated lizards ("Timon lepidus"), grass snakes
