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
Saturday 29 June, Gaucin, sunny, fresh E wind gusting to strong, 26C: On an afternoon visit to Setenil de las Bodegas, NE of Ronda, sightings along the route included Griffon Vulture, Booted Eagle, Short-toed Eagle, Raven, European Bee-eater, Woodchat Shrike and Red-billed Chough. In the village itself it was strange to see Alpine Swift passing a couple of metres overhead as they entered their nest sites in the rock crevices just below which the cave-houses are.
