    Mallorca 2023

    Yesterday was low on birding, but had a short walk on a dirtpath with a s'illot signt from the road to can picafort. An old peregrine falcon rested on the power wires towards depuradura. I wonder if you can walk all the way to the tower or if there are fences? Today we went by car to mortitx...

    Thank you all for your kinds answers. I've read abort the Ternelles valley as well, might be worth a stop or even consider booking a spot for the guided walk (seems like its free of charge), though it might be a bit to long (12km) for the kids...

    Thank you for your entusiasm! I was thinking that it might be a bit late for the bee eaters, but not easy to read up on migration times ( i know our local times pretty well though). They visit our island rarely but almost yearly, so i might have to try harder to see them at home 😀. Thekla larks...

    Back in Sweden on the island of Gotland (same size as Mallorca). A lot colder, but welcomed by an abundance of waxwings as a comfort. Thougt i'd be sharing some of the photos i got during the visit. Mostly from S'albufera. Had to delete a lot of photos due to bad heat haze effect of midday bird...

    We had this one on a long distance today around 3 in the afternoon. Seen from central S'albufera looking South. The size difference to the annoyed marsh harrier is striking. Is it one of the few golden eagles on mallorca?

    We've been here for 3 days with our kids so far, especially the 11 year old is all about birds. Very happy so far with our visits to s'albufera, mostly the common stuff i guess but new to our kids. The hides suited them perfect and we've seen the sponbill, ibises, night herons, stilts...

    Arriving in Alcudia on saturday. Are the northern areas of s'albufera worth visiting (es colombars, quite close to the hotel) or should we go for the main entrance? Joakim

    Mallorca 2022

    Thank you for your kind reply. Im sure we will have a good time. Hard to point out specifik birds of interest . Arctic waders are always nice though we have already had a good season here on Gotland. Would love some stilts, hoepoes (missed one just today in our area, rare visitors)and blue...
