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
Sunday 06 May, light-fresh W-NW wind, mostly sunny, 19C: After Saturday's endless rain and top temperature of 11C today was much improved! The highlights of a morning walk behind the Sierra del Hacho were several Griffon Vulture, a pair of Common Kestrel, 3 Booted Eagle, 4 singing Bonelli's Warbler and a singing Woodlark. There were some wild Peony in flower and the reward of a great view from above Gaucin and an olive grove flower meadow (see photos)
There were also still a few orchids including a Sawfly Ophrys and a Small White, see photos.
