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
Tuesday 11 February 2014, Gaucin, mostly sunny am, rain pm, fresh W-NW wind, 7C
A crisp, cold walk, just 0C, along Camino de Avedin at 0830hrs produced a single Hawfinch at the top of their favoured Poplar tree, also Song Thrush, European Robin, Blackcap, Sardinian Warbler, Chiffchaff, Wren, Crested Tit, Great Tit, Blue Tit, Serin, Goldfinch and Chaffinch. The Song Thrush, Robin and Wren were all in full song. It soon clouded over and by noon the rain was back with the temperature struggling to reach 7C; so far a classic Gaucin February!
