70. Rose ringed Parakeet 71. Spotted Crake The rose ringed parakeet was an easy one, enjoying an almond in the neighbors almond tree! The spotted Crake was a good one, it's a bit of a rarity of where I live and had a very good look at it at my birding spot! -

Went this morning to Aiguamolls de l'emporda, a fantastic marsh area about an hour and a half drive up north towards the French border. Had a great morning, though still a tad disappointed as I expected to find more waders than I did. But still a good day to up my 2022 list and add 2 Lifers... -

I am at the stage that I have seen most of the 'easy' birds around me, so will have to start traveling to see more if I want to see more birds this year than last year. Might take the Sunday and go North (Aiguamolls de l'Emporda) a bit to see some shorebirds. Life, work, family, covid and now... -
