    Mallorca 2022

    We were there in the afternoon around 2pm. Parked the car at the far end to have lunch and a hoopoe wandered passed as did a yellow wagtail. A single great tit flew into a bush infront off us very briefly. Is there a purple heron around as we saw a very dark coloured heron. Certainly not a grey.

    Thanks for the info Mike. Normally tend to drive stop/start most of our bird watching. As my partner has walking problems especially over uneven ground and being out in the sun too long some venues are out. regards David
