ANOTHER GREAT MIGRATION TOUR finished where it started, back in Malaga. We had seen 168 species and heard a couple more, Common Nightingale and Wren. I had a fantastic group, full of ethusiasm and very keen to seek out a tremendous variety of species.
‘Bird of the trip’ remained undecided but Golden Eagle, Spanish Imperial Eagle, Red-necked Nightjar and White Stork (a sighting of 3000 on the thermals) all got a vote. My personal favourite sighting was of the masses of Black Kites, seen everyday, a never ending stream heading south for warmer climes.
