And capiblancos not listed ... One of owls
There is still room, it is not something to get nervous. However, usually this time of year and would have been present in the mountains of a cappella, but this season it seems that something is wrong.
In recent weeks, Mr Ricardo Hevia and myself we spent in different-and not a few-times for the high sierra of our scanning for the presence of the always elusive, yet interesting, capiblancos blackbirds (Turdus torquatus). As I say, the result so far has been nil.
However, not having seen some other indicators of spring migration makes us think we are just experiencing a slight delay in the fall of these unique thrushes. A significant factor is the absence of other migrants in the area, such as mobile always detectable Wheatear (Oenanthe oenanthe ) or Tree Pipit (Anthus trivialis ), clearly visible for flights zeal "in parachute. "
So hope. The margin of maneuver is optimal until the first week of May, dates on which these other I got my biggest party record of the species: 7 birds (4 males and 3 females) on top the mountain Limo.
And is that since 1994 there have failed us. Let's hope so.
