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
Monday 01 October, Gaucin, mostly sunny, light N-NE wind, 19C: A visit to the Rio Genal below Gaucin from 0815-0915hrs produced the following of note on a quiet, cool, 14C, morning: 3 Common Snipe, 1 Northern Wheatear, Great-spotted Woodpecker, Spotless Starling, 12 White Wagtail, 1 Pied Flycatcher and Short-toed Treecreeper. At 2000hrs there were 100+ House Martin over the southern edge of the village; haven't seen a Swift for a couple of weeks yet this time last year there were still a few around - have they all gone back already?
