October 11th 2010

A brief update on the last few days. We spent a weekend away from birding at Granada and Cordoba as we celebrated our weddding anniversary and Dawn's birthday, both on the same day! Clever, most men would say, cunning most women would say! Neither I would say as it cost me twice as much as having two separate events!

Anyway, apart from a fantastic weekend of sight seeing and miles of walking up and down steps to Alcazars, Alcazabas, Palaces, Catedrals, Mesquitas and Jardins we saw some birds! An interesting couple of observations were a calling Scop's Owl in the centre of Cordoba and a fantastic Egret roost on the Rio Guadalquiver. We also saw over 2000 ducks, grebes, coots and others on the laguna Dulce at Campillos on the way home.

back to birding tomorrow.
