Rock Sparrow?

After leaving the monastery we headed west to Cap Blanc to try for the mythical Rock Sparrow. This is a species that I don't have a lot of luck with...to say the least! There is only one site on Mallorca were this bird can be seen. I like to feel I gave it a good shot...with my limited mobility...but it wasn't to be. Dave doesn't even mention the species in his site description. Should have been a clue!

I did get great views of Thekla Lark however...


Just as we were leaving for the car I took one last look...I do that a lot! A gull that looked distinctive was cruising along the clifftop heading our way. Surely not...

Audouin's Gull
