Tarifa - Strait of Gibraltar

10-14 Sept - A few days at Tarifa and as usual an impressive raptor migration at the watchpoints, with fantastic views of some low flying birds - Honey Buzzards, Booted and Short-toed Eagles, Black Kites, Black Storks, together with Hobby, Lesser Kestrel, Peregrine and Montagu's and Marsh Harriers. Bee-eaters, Alpine Swift and Red-rumped Swallows spiced up the mix. Waders on the beach included Barwits and Whimbrels as well as Kentish and Ringed Plovers, Sanderlings and superb Audouin's Gulls. Cory's Shearwaters moved through the straits early morning.
