The campo in spring, is full of people acting strangely. People walk along the roads and paths, suddenly to leap over a wall and pounce on what appears to be a blade of grass.
Closer inspection however will show that they are hunting asparagus, and from the end of February to the end of April or early May it is open season on asparagus throughout southern Spain.
We went out asparagus hunting and as the picture shows, it is more difficult to find these pesky spears than one would think.
We sadly came back to the village carrying our three pieces, whilst other villagers had so much that they had filled three bags!
