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 22 November, Gaucin, partly cloudy, light E-NE breeze, 14C: Not much to report...a couple of Common Raven below Sierra Crestellina this morning. On the drive down to the coast on Monday spotted both Southern Grey Shrike and Blue Rock Thrush just off the road opposite Sierra Crestellina. In Malaga city centre there were several Black Redstart, also a Blackbird in full song on top of the christmas tree of lights (unlit!) in Plaza de la Constitucion and a Tawny Owl calling just below the Gibralfaro; other species seen around the centre were Yellow-legged Gull, Grey Heron, Little Egret, Monk Parakeet, Collared Dove, Crag Martin, Chiffchaff sp., Serin and Goldfinch.
