[QUOTE="Peewit, post: 1463668, member: 57492"] Hi Barred Warbler Thank you for your reply. Yes there will be some good species around. The only birds that we can confirm we saw last year where the Woodchat Shrike on one occasion. The Bee-eaters where around but very illusive and difficult to see towards Cala Tirant. We will bring our binoculars this year too. We must get more adventurous with our birding away from Fornells itself. We need to walk around the nature reservoir itself, and the Walking boots are coming with us too. Hi Keith Thank you for your information, and I will be interested in your report on your return trip in September. Sounds good from what you are saying a the moment. Last year we we had a lot of bats flying around our heads on our first night, when we sat ourside drinking our wine. This happened next night with the wine and all the chat while Talked to our neighbours in the same block. A good old chin wag about life. We could hear Scoups Owl, or two calling close to our chalet. What a deep creepy call they have. i understand that there a nature walk around Fornells, and I have not suceeded in getting a map of the nature reserve itself yet. Still working on it and if you have any good books you know we can purchase all the better. Hi Steve Another really interesting tour for yourself. I would love to see what you have mentioned in your answer. I have not heard of Calan Forcat unless it is one of those out of the way places. What time of year did you go? Where is Calan Forcat in relation to Es Mercadal. We had a pm tour to Es Mercadel one day last uyear and I am sure we will do the same thing this year. Thank you for your replies everyone I really appreciate everything that has been said here. If you think of anything else of interest all the better, and I will take on board what advise has been given. Still would love a map of the nature reserve around Fornells somewhere and somehow. Either it be by website, book or map publication or otherwise. [/QUOTE]
