Tuesday 15 January, Gaucin, mostly sunny, fresh W-NW wind, 11C but feeling colder in the wind. The past couple of days have been so sunny and warm it's hard to believe it's not yet Spring; I keep looking to the skies expecting to see some Summer migrants then remind myself that it's still too early, even for southern Spain! It will only be two or three weeks, though, before the first arrivals are here such as House Martin, Barn Swallow and the beautiful Black Kite.
