Birdwatch Gaucin

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

A beautiful Spring day today with some Black Kite passage mid-morning:
40+ over Gaucin at 1100hrs and 30+ over the wind turbines at Casares. At 1830hrs there was a male Montagu's Harrier drifting over Calle Convento. Swift sp. numbers are beginning to increase with 20+ late afternoon on the southern edge of the village.
