Not so missing Lynx!


Great start to the Iberian Lynx watching year with multiple sightings on all the full days we were on the Sierra de Andujar. Another personal highlight was watching some interaction between this young male Lynx and a Red Fox as they seemed to travel together for a while before they peeled off in their respective directions - very interesting!
 
Added to that I also moved ny year list forward somewhat with several new birds including Spanish Imperial Eagle, Black Vulture, Black Wheatear, Iberian Green Woodpecker, Common Crane and a surprise Alpine Accentor at Cabo de Gata - I will take them all this year...
 
...So the list stands in the mid-130's and my target for 140+ by the end of the month looks acheivable - fingers crossed. Please keep those pladges rolling in, it is simply awesome.
