There is a mega rare Thrush in the Tramuntana mountains but the finder will not release details of where it is. I don't understand why. Hundreds of people go into the mountains every weekend to walk, usually with children, but the maximum number of birders here who would go to see it would be about six people. That's a big twitch here. I would always respect finders wishes but unless the bird is on private land, I cannot think of a valid reason for withholding the information. All a bit frustrating. It's possibly an Eye-browsed Thrush. Mike
Had the same issue about a roust of Long eared owls in Switzerland. The Roust was in the carpark of a small airport which had a cafe and kids playground outside.
So much disturbance but the birds were there for several years!
