The .es domain is in the HTTP_REFERRER field, however
that does not mean the bot is in spain.

If anything, it found a link to your site on that site in spain.
The IP would show where the bot is located. That appears
to be in the US :

Uh... yeah. I guess you are right there. It was early, and I had not yet had coffee (or enough of it!), and I guess I was not seeing correctly...
