Hi, and welcome to my blogg page this is the first of hopefully
manny entries in this blogg. I will focus on phography in which i am an amature.
But i will also have other types of entries along the way. I have spent now a
bit more than two months here in Palma and i will start the thread by posting
some pictures from yesterdays trip to "S'albufera national parc".
It is a great place to see waterbirds and at this time a lot of migrating
birds as well. This was more of a fun trip with a big group so it was only a
limited time for photos. But it was great fun,and we finished of a hot day at the beach with a swim in the ocean and a glass of wine.
For this one i need a bit more time for identification But it ceartanly was a lot of them and most of them were conducting in quite lewd behaviour. This just inn.....Oxcythyrea funesta
Knoppsothøne Fulica cristata Focha Cornuda
This is a rare species and a wierd one at that, but beautiful
Gråhegre Ardea cinerea Garza real
Rødhodeand Netta rufina Pato colorado m and f
Sandlo Charadrius hiaticula Chorlitejo grande
Not entierly sure on this one but i think it is a Natrix maura, or the european watersnake
Stokkand Anas platyrhynchos Ánade azulón
Stylteløper Himantopus himantopus Cigûeñuela común
Here are several different types. What i know is these. There is another duck there but i fail to see what it is for sure
Skjestork Platea leucorodia Espátula común
Storskarv Phalacrocorax aristotelis Cormorán moñudo
Sothøne Fulica atra Focha Común
Stylteløper Himantopus himantopus Cigûeñuela común
Stokkand Anas platyrhynchos Ánade azulón
Skjeand Anas clypeata Pato cucharo
Had lunch at the beach, need i remind you what the date is. Mallorca is nice this time of the year.
So that is it for this time. I will upload some more pictures shortly. Some new others older just to show some people what i look at. As i have said this is my first entry so not all will be perfect. Feel free to come with constructive critisism. with emphasis on constructive.
Yay, I get to be the first minion! Gotta get to work now, will get back to you later - but nice pictures, I'm envious! :)
SvarSlettI think I was there when I was small, but havent visited it again in a very long time.
SvarSlettAbout the foto with many birds...I think the "mysterious" ducks on the sand bar are northern shovelers (Anas clypeata), patos cuchara in spanish.
SvarSlettNice blog Morten!

Sorry, I didn't see that "pato cuchara" was already mentioned...So...everything is successfully identified! hehe.
