As soon as we arrived we saw the first Black-Eared Wheatears of the day, together with Linnets, Blue Tits, Thekla Larks, etc. Lots of Sardinian Warblers were singing and we also later heard (and glimpsed) an Orphean Warbler.
Once we started walking we passed through territory after territory of Rufous-Tailed Scrub Robins – a real joy. In all we saw 8 territorial males in a 2 k stroll. But the best of all came when one we were watching a long way off through the telescope decided to to come towards us to bathe in a brook. The best thing about it was that it was the bird itself that decided to come up to us rather than us chasing him.
First of all a quick bramble-top recce to make sure there’s no danger before dropping down to bathe.
Slowly he hopped towards the brook along along the path
Until he finally had a long bath, which he seemed to enjoy
We also saw Booted Eagles and loads of Black Kites.
A perfect morning, especially after the victory the night before of BARÇA!!!!!!!!!!!
