Avifauna de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Anatomía de un ave. Martes, 19 de mayo de 2015. La última vez que fui a Punta Rasa a fines de febrero de este año pude ver algunas gaviotas cangrejeras ( Larus atlanticus. Aunque no tantas como otras veces. Las pude divisar recién en horas del mediodía, cuando me dispuse a descansar de mi salida y a disfrutar en familia del almuerzo y de las olas del mar.

Birding in Murcia (Spain): April 2014
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Wednesday, 30 April 2014. Is it all over? The last week of April is normally a good week for passerine passage migrants, and this last week didn’t disappoint! Together with Mick Brewer, I’ve been at the lighthouse gardens at Cabo de Palos every morning apart from Saturday 26. When we took a trip to the ‘saladares del Guadalentin’ – more about that later. Carrying on from my last blog entry, Wednesday 23. Wasn’t a spectacular morning, with just 6 Willow Warblers. And male Common...

Birding in Murcia (Spain): April 2015
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Wednesday, 29 April 2015. Trip to the ‘Saladares del Guadalentín’. Although I’m out most of the time in the Spring looking for migrants, a special time for me is my first visit of the year to the ’Saladares del Guadalentín’ when I know that the Rollers have arrived. I got to the ‘saladares’ at just after 11 0´clock – a bit on the late side for there, as it was starting to get hot. I headed straight to the Guadalentín. And some closer views of a Roller. After a while they stoppe...

Birding in Murcia (Spain): July 2014
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Thursday, 10 July 2014. Normally at this time of year things are very quiet, with most birds either still breeding or moulting, and there is very little movement of birds, and I don’t tend to go out much myself. However on the 22. June a friend of mine José Antonio was coming to stay for a few days in La Manga with his family, and could manage a couple of hours early morning bird watching, and asked me to come along. But where to go? Quite a number of waders, including 6 Curlew.

Birding in Murcia (Spain): October 2014
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Tuesday, 14 October 2014. A morning at 'El Hondo' - postscript. Upper wing is good for LSE. Underwing with double comas and blackish secondaries also indicate to LSE. The shape and size of bill is slender and typical LSE-type. We cannot see any barring on flight feathers. This is the 2cy bird and it can be still pretty dark. Contrast between dark body and paler upper-wings is diagnostic for LSE – its so called ‘dark saddle’.". Greater Spotted Eagle and nothing against. October)...

Birding in Murcia (Spain): December 2013
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Wednesday, 25 December 2013. I haven’t blogged for a while – due mainly to the lack of birds to write about, but I thought I’d put pen to paper for those of you who have just got here or who have a few days available to get into the field – where do you go? That was until this week, when some interesting waterfowl started to show up, finishing with a female Goosander in the Mar Menor and Great Northern Diver past Cabo de Palos the day before yesterday (23. Of interest, a juveni...

Birding in Murcia (Spain): November 2013
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Tuesday, 19 November 2013. It feels like winter! Over the last week, winter finally and definitively seems to have set in! Single figure temperatures overnight and only reaching 15 - 20º during the day - for us that's cold - the shorts are stowed away for next year! So what impact has this had on the birdlife in Murcia? There have also been reports of auks and scoters streaming into the Mediterranean through the straits of Gibraltar, and this weekend a single Common Scoter was ...

Birding in Murcia (Spain): February 2015
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Thursday, 26 February 2015. Out and About, and Fuerteventura. Having written nothing in my blog for a while, I thought it was about time I did, even if only to let you all know I'm alive and kicking! One of the reasons has been because birding has been pretty quiet of late - with high north / north-westerly winds blowing for almost a month now, very little has been seen. On the afternoon of Monday 16th February I called in at. Landing tail first on the water. At the lighthouse ...

Birding in Murcia (Spain): May 2014
http://murciabirder.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Birding in Murcia (Spain). Sunday, 18 May 2014. Saturday 17th May - Up West for the day. Normally on a Saturday, I take the opportunity of having the whole day off to go out and about in Murcia. As last Saturday I stayed local at Cabo de Palos to do the monthly RAM seawatch, I decided that this Saturday I would go to the extreme opposite side of Murcia, and planned accordingly. For obvious reasons, I cannot give the exact location of the birds). I remained here until around 6-30am. Automatically I though...
