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
Monday 21 July 2014, Gaucin, sunny, calm air-light SE wind, 30C
After a couple of days of mainly westerly winds, the more usual summery easterly levante is back. This morning at 0845hrs there were 3 Hawfinch in the gardens between Calle Convento and Calle del Pino. Swift numbers are reducing and a large proportion of the local House Martin population has already left for the wintering areas; groups of European Bee-eater, including one of 35 individuals, to-ing and fro-ing throughout the day.
