Pyrenees reflections

There doesn't seem to be much point repeating events in a summary regarding my trip. So I thought I'd do a general summary followed by some thoughts on certain sites.
 
You probably gathered that I was impressed by the scenery! It's a great little area with plenty of places to visit within an "hour or so" drive.
 
Birding was light and generally disappointing. The choice and range of services was impressive, which makes for a far better experience...compared to Spain!
 
Our digs in the lovely village of Saint Savin at Les Rochers were superb. It was a great base from which to explore and the English owners helped with logistics...
 
 
The Village...
 
 
...and a bird...An early morning Black Redstart...a very common species...
 
 
Col du Tormoulet tomorrow...
