(some) Birds of Mallorca

BIRDS

Here are some of the birds i have seen this spring. After several trips arround the Island of Mallorca.  I wanted to show them before i go over to show pictures of my trip to Morroco, which will be uploaded shortly bit by bit.

Blåtrost Monticola solitariussence, Or in spanish Rockero solitario which sounds pretty cool. This one was flying near the top of the mountain Galatzo, one of the higher mountains on the island.

Bokfink Fringilla coelebs male taken near the two lakes on the island. One of the most common birds and also a beautiful one at that.

Middelhavsmåke Larus audouinii A different species of seagull than what i am used to from Norway with a red beak and black and white tail. This is taken in the village of St Elm.  

Munk female and male Sylvia atricapilla taken from the the base of mountain Tossals Verds Also a common bird, The top picture is the female and the bottom one is the male.

Stylteløper Himantopus himantopus from a secret location of mine. It is a great little place of small ponds of salty water. However it is close to tourism hotspots and i would like to keep this gem hidden/protected. This bird is great to watch as it scans the water for food.
