Monday 24 February 2014, Gaucin, partly cloudy, light -fresh NW wind, 12C

This morning whilst walking between San Martin de Tesorillo and Castellar de la Frontera I saw my first Black Kite of the year (though it doesn't count as a 'Gaucin tick'!), also a Short-toed Eagle, 20+ Griffon Vulture, Common Buzzard, 3x Common Kestrel, Crested Lark, lots of Stonechat, Cetti's Warbler (heard), Zitting Cisticola, Serin, Cirl Bunting and Corn Bunting (plenty of them singing).
