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
Wednesday 09 January, Gaucin, light air from N-NW, mostly sunny, 15C: Not much to report but yesterday I spent a morning between Jimena de la Frontera and San Martin de Tesorillo looking for new walking routes - superb weather, clear skies and 19C. Although not really birding I did see Griffon Vuture, 3x Common Buzzard, Lesser Kestrel, 2x Common Snipe, 2x Green Sandpiper, Little Egret, Cattle Egret, Grey Heron, Song Thrush, Blue Rock Thrush, Crested Lark, Meadow Pipit, White Wagtail, Black Redstart, Stonechat, Blackcap, Chiffchaff sp., Zitting Cisticola, Cirl Bunting, Serin, Goldfinch, Linnet, Greenfinch and a couple of fields 'full' of Chaffinch (and probably a few Brambling, too, but didn't see any!).
