Majorca

Welcome to our home for the next fortnight! A pleasant flight, 24C and the Nightingales are in full song! The villa is a great find by Dee and there's even a cat and several chickens to look after!

Another great find by Dee - Working for Thomson's all those years certainly paid off!
It's been 10 years since I last visited Majorca so I'm looking forward to getting out there and exploring. Another bonus is that I can walk into the Albufereta reserve from the villa so what more can you ask for, let the birding begin.

A beautiful Nightingale in full song! What a stunner..
In fact it already has with my garden and fly-over list already consisting of: Cattle Egret, Common SwiftHoopoe, Stonechat, Whinchat, Sardinian Warbler and would you believe a Cetti's Warbler. Oh and yes, lots of House Sparrows and this gorgeous Nightingale in full song!
