These were taken no more than a week apart but yo could feasibly do it in a few days if you wanted to do the driving. I don't think I do anymore. For now anyway.

This time last year I set off in my van for a long trip to Morocco and Western Sahara, Spain on the way back. I wish I'd gone again this year.

The Red-backed Shrike I encountered at Dungeness last Tuesday has stayed at least a week so far.

Almost at the end of my Spain visit as I look at crossing the Pyrenees. 258 bird species noted in 2 months and that's missing 30-50 easily getable. Spain is still the best birding destination in Europe. After a 5 year hiatus, I hope to be back again later this year.

Took a long time but eventually encountered White-backed Woodpeckers in Spain today. Will try to get photos again tomorrow. A species with a remarkable range
