Birds in Manlleu(2X REDACCIÓ)

In Manlleu have seen more than two hundred species of birds. This is the area where have seen more birds of Osona. In Manlleu there are five ornithologist and they have seen rare species as, Elanus Caeruleus in 2008( seen for Guillem jeje), Lanius minor in 2002 (seen for Andrés), Mergus merganser( seen for Albert), Numenius phaopus in 2007, etc.

In winter, birds are Northern Europe as Phalacrocorax carbo, various ducks as Anas crecca or Anas strepera, etc. Also Casmerodius albus, one withe bird that I have count thirteen in one morning!!!  The Fringilla coelebs thousands came to for feed in the fields.
In Spring and Autumn a lot of differents tips of birds stoping in Manlleu durnig their travels for feed or rest.
In Summer only remain the birds that raising as Merops apiaster, Oriolus oriolus, Saxicola torquata, Passer domesticus, Coturnix coturnix,etc.
My research will go on this subject. I will make a map grid Manlleu and each grid i will count all the birds if I will see.
It also will study the migrations of the big raptors.

Will be an interesting work.

Aiguamolls de L'Empordà(val per 2 )

I went to Montse, Jordi and Ruben in Aiguamolls de l'Empordà. We left at 9:30  to Manlleu and arrived to Cortalet Lake at 10:45. Droved Jordi and in the trip we saw Pernis apivorus, Milvus migrans and Buteo buteo. Our challenge was to see Falco vespertinus, one beatiful  falcon who live at Romania but in winter travel to Shael, a region of Africa and pass to Spain in the spring.
When we arrived, we entered at Quim Franch hide, situate in Cortalet lake. We could saw Plegadis falcinellus, Platalea leucorodia, Ciconia ciconia, Pernis apivorus, a lot of ducks,Riparia riparia etc. Then we went on the way to arrive at Mata wetlands. Along the way we saw diferents birds as Merops apiaster, Cygnus olor, Chlidonias hybrida, Saxicola torquata, etc.. When we were watching in one hide ,  I saw one little Grey falcon  but i can't be sure that was Falco vespertinus. When we arrives to Mata wetlands saw one Ardeloa ralloides and a lot of Himantopus himantopus that stayed making the ¿nest?. When we back to car Ruben said to went at animal refuge Aiguamolls, one place when the people carry the injured animals but the men don't  stayed there .
At 17:00 i stayed to Manlleu

The White Wagtail(Motacilla alba)

The Withe Wagtail is a beautiful bird that lives in cities of Europe. It is white with a black spot on his chest. The male has more darker than the female. In Manlleu I have controlled seven pairs but are probably more. Often  it can be seen near the Ter but also inside the city and gardens. In winter the birds that live in northern Europe come to Spain to eat and hope the sun shines, it's the moment that there are more and different subspecies.  It's one of the most abundant birds in cities.

Sierra de la Culebra i Llacunes de Villafàfila(2X REDACCIÓ 200 PARAULES)

In 2009 I gonne to Castella i Lleó with two friends to Figueres. Castella i Lleó is the most extensive region to Europe. There are a lot of birding areas: wetlands, deciduous forests,  fields, alpine forests, etc.. This means that there are much variety of birds as the Tetrax tetrax, Grus Grus, Otis tarda, Drendocopus minor and a lot of mammals as the bear, the Iberian wolf which are the most emblematic.As I said I went to Castella, specifically the village of Villardeciervos in Zamora, which is near the Sierra de la Culebra where is one of the last places where wolves live there. We stayed two days in the village and made two trips to saw wolves but we had bad luck and we found only traces and feces(caques) .After we went to try to saw Otis tarda in Villafáfila reserve and we saw 12 together, also we could saw one male to Circus pygargus, one beautiful male to Oenanthe hispanica and some ducks. The next day we back to Catalonia and on the way we cauld saw Aquila crysaetos, Gyps fulvus, Circus aeroginosus and a lot of Ciconia ciconia. Was a good trip
