A great day out with some fantastic birding, we saw 96 species with TEMMINCK'S STINT (2), MARBLED DUCK (5) and LITTLE SWIFT (10+) topping the bill.
Day 1: I collected my group of 6 from Malaga Airport late in the evening, they landed just as it was getting dark so we drove back to Gaucin without seeing a single bird.
Day 2: we had a full day in the mountains with lots of great sightings but the best by far was a 1cy PALLID HARRIER, what a great bird to find in Spain!
