Andalucia 30th Sep- 9th Oct

Last week I spent in southern Spain ringing with my friend Juan Rámirez. The week was absolutely amazing with so many nice and new species for me to ring. We ringed every day in different place and different habitat so diversity of the species caught was also good. After all, for me all the mountain areas were the best.
