Rain??

Well despite all the doom and gloom on the weather forecasts as per usual it looks as if in our little corner of SW Spain is going to miss the worst of it, but watch this space!! So early tomorrow off bird ringing at my main ringing site where the 2 major rivers of the area meet,the Rios of Genal and Guadiaro. Winds are quite good it appears tomorrow basically W..At moment because of the summer drought and hottest August that I have ever experienced in the 25 years here, the Genal is not flowing at the site and the Guadiaro is but a trickle so there should be plenty of passerines coming down to drink Hopefully a few pictures of birds ringed and safely released on the blog tomorrow. I am a member of a local very active ringing group and have the necessary licence to trap and ring birds
