    Mallorca 2023

    I did a bit of seawatching from Punta de n‘Amer today. I just stayed for about 45 minutes, but my numbers seem to relatively match yours. I did not see any storm petrels, but I probably left too early for them. I’ll work my magic for Thursday! Hoping for something good! Other than that, my visit...

    Mallorca 2023

    No, don’t be sorry! I figured as much, just wanted to make absolutely sure! I visited Son Real, the Depuradora, s‘Albufereta behind Can Cuarassa and Maristany today. Not many birds around. The large numbers of hirundines of the last couple of days seem to finally have left the island. Not much...

    Of course, your wish is my command! Not only did I have at least 3 Red-rumped swallows at the depuradora Son Bosc today, but also a very special completely white Barn swallow. I’ve never seen a Barn swallow like that before! I spent a good hour trying to get a photo, with the bird only...

    I believe the length of the claw is within its limits for Tree pipit. Clear Tree pipit for me.

    With Ryan's permission, I extracted the audio from the video, reduced background noise and amplified it a bit. Here's the result. Personally, I think it might as well be a Sylvia spec's subsong. Mallorca unknown bird

    I’ve listened to the recording and I’m very sure it’s not Iduna opaca. The song sounds like a subsong, like a young bird that is still learning. I’m not sure about the exact species though.

    Sure! Shoot me an email! I'll pm you my contact info. Western Olivaceous Warbler is a very rare migrant in Mallorca.

    That sounds intriguing! I’ve got a few ideas, but want to listen to it on my computer first and have a look at its sonogram. It’s not a GRW, in my opinion. Have you got any other recordings? Maybe sound only?

    Temminck‘s Stint is a scarce winter visitor and migrant (somewhere between 10 and 100 birds each year). Certainly a good find anyway and a bird I still needed on my Mallorca list this year!

    I think Maristany (the area behind that Lidl in Port d’Alcudia) is a good place to find Vagrant emperor. I’ve seen at least four imagos there, together with I believe Anax imperator and many Red-veined darters. Gotmar’s Roller was a fantastic bird to see (along with a Wood Warbler which I...
