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
Sunday10 March, Gaucin, mostly cloudy, intermittent heavy rain showers, 14L/m2 since Saturday evening, light-fresh W wind, 10C: Thanks to Wingspanner for his sightings today - clearly more going on to the west! No major raptor migration sightings here but there was a pair of Goshawk displaying over the valleys south of the village early afternoon and one or two Short-toed Eagle and Common Kestrel around. There were two Swift sp. flying towards the coast in front of Sierra Crestellina but they were too far away for me to ID between Common and Pallid.
