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 11 July 2013, Gaucin, mostly sunny, light E-NE wind, 30C.
Back in Spain after a week in the UK (Berks/Wilts/Somerset) where it was sunny and temperatures reached 29C. Other than enjoying the many Red Kite and scanning the Swifts for a stray Pallid or Alpine I didn't do much birding; it was great, though, to have breakfast outside listening to a Skylark. Here in Gaucin the only change I've noted so far is the presence of European Bee-eater nearer the village, presumably beginning to disperse away from their breeding sites.
