The aim of this blog is to record bird sightings in and around Gaucin. We have a fantastic variety of birds that live in and visit the area and it would be great to have somewhere where we can publish observations for others to see. If you'd like to contribute on a regular basis please ask and I can add you as an author or send me your sightings or other observations by email pmconvento@gmail.com (the usual stuff...date, bird, location, etc.) and I'll add them to the blog. Happy birding! Paul
Thursday 26 May, 1100hrs, Gaucin, overcast, warm: Glad I decided to walk instead of driving this morning as I added a new 'tick' to my Gaucin list when a juvenile (2cy) Eurasian Hobby flew over the puente on the Ronda road and headed off north up over the shoulder of La Umbria scattering the local Swifts as it went. Also saw, or heard, Great-spotted Woodpecker, Green Woodpecker, Iberian Chiffchaff, Sardinian Warbler, Blackcap, Robin and Wren.
