Provence winter birding (1 Viewer)

Tomorrow I will arrive in Provence for a 5 day stay. Does anyone know of recent sightings of Pin-tailed Sandgrouse and Spotted Eagle at La Crau, Rock Sparrow at Pont du Gard, and Wallcreeper and Alpine Accentor at Les Baux. All information gratefully received.
 
As on my last visit to the region in March 2013 information on local sightings appears to be difficult to come by. But in four days from 20 - 23 January I found all my trip targets: Pin-tailed Sandgrouse, Rock Sparrow, Spotted Eagle, Wallcreeper, Alpine Accentor and European Eagle Owl. Full details for anyone who may be interested are on my personal blog at:
