Bird News from Jason Loghry<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a long, rainy, bird-less Saturday, I woke up early and headed to the park for some Sunday fun day<\/em>. Eastern Great Tit<\/strong> were in good numbers, and there was a noticeable presence of Goldcrest<\/strong> moving through the pines. There were a few Varied Tit<\/strong>, Japanese White-eye<\/strong>, Pale Thrush<\/strong>, a couple of White-backed Woodpeckers<\/strong>, a Grey-headed Woodpecker<\/strong>, and a lone Hawfinch<\/strong> bravely feeding on the busy footpath. As the morning grew, more people started to pour in. I looked up at the sky and saw raptors soaring, so I headed to a nearby mountainside for a better view. <\/p>\n

This was a great decision. At a resting spot on the south-eastern face of the mountain opposite the sea, from about 12:40 to 14:40, I counted 13 Eastern Buzzards<\/strong>, 2 Goshawks<\/strong>, 2 Northern Hobby<\/strong>, 6 Black Kite<\/strong>, and a steady flow of more than 160 Eurasian Sparrowhawks<\/strong>. All seemed to follow the same route, steadily hugging the coastline in a westerly direction. Even with all this excitement, the highlight of the afternoon made this visit superb: a gorgeous Black Stork<\/strong> moving in the same direction.
