    Peregrine falcon on Palma’s Cathedral (Mallorca)

    A search in Spanish shows some news about that. There are peregrines at the cathedral, yes, coming from a hacking program started in 2008/9 for domestic pigeon control. Still reported in news in 2018, Maybe someone living there can give more details...

    I’d like to crop and post an audio file from Merlin off my iPhone.

    I've found more or less easy when I forget it (sometimes I do), in an Android, to make a search for *.wav files from the file manager of the phone. If you do a quick filter also by the date -to avoid your music files, etc.- the folder name comes out easy. All the audio files generated by Merlin...

    Wallcreeper February.

    If you go there, in the way up to Vadiello there is also a spot that is getting some sightings now in the small side road going to La Almunia del Romeral (cliffs around and also small dam in Guatizalema river) (42.2084043, -0.2840745). Good luck!

    Wallcreeper February.

    There are so many walls in that area... but in the same level of confidence as those mentioned above I should place the dam and surrounding cliffs at Vadiello reservoir on river Guatizalema. There is a car parking at (42.2400089, -0.2806816) and then two small tunnels to arrive at the dam. It is...
