Passage.
Yep, definitely passing over my house those BK, as usual with these winds, they are hardly breaking sweat or flapping just gliding fast past with the accompanying winds
I went to Punta Carnero,Algeciras,this afternoon during a break in the weather,but with strong westerly winds.Birds seen: black stork,100´s black kite,60 odd short toed eagles,8 egyptian vultures,1 peregrine falcon and 1 sparrowhawk.Birds were being blown over Gibraltar at times in winds of force 5-6,but except when it was obviously raining in Morrocco,when no birds crossed,most of the birds made landfall near Punta Carnero,swallows and house martins were crossing all afternoon with no problem,but no ospreys were seen.
