FEB 25TH - PUNTA UMBRIA WALK

Dawn and I took a late morning walk along one of our favourite tracks which is found just north of the village. We set off in bright, warm sunshine, it was about 16 C with a light breeze.

Over the next 2 hours we logged many woodland species as the track climbed up through a cork oak forest. Many Robins, blackcaps and Chaffinches were singing we also heard Wren, Great Tit, Sardinian Warbler and both Great-spotted & Green Woodpeckers were calling and drumming. Jays, Common Buzzards, Eurasian Nuthatch and Short-toed Treecreeper were found towards the end of the walk.

Some interesting butterflies we on the wing: Spanish Festoon, Brimstone, Cleopatra and Large Tortoiseshell were the most abundant.

THE BAD NEWS IS THAT I DROPPED MY CAMERA AND NOW IT DOESN'T WORK!!
