@GibraltarBirds Witnessed a big push of Griffon Vulture at punta secreta on Sunday many arriving virtually touching the surface of sea and crashing on to the beaches below, then having to climb the cliff, attempting to get airborne, amazing to see migration like that, brave, precarious and raw.

WINTER WREN (Troglodytes troglodytes) A common resident in #Gibraltar, strongly territorial and often sing very early in prominent, exposed & often unusual perches to obtain acoustic advantage, even outside the breeding season to ward off other males & establish their territory

At el Quarry. Muslim couples on a paddleboard next to a Jewish family. Los Consiglieros unmounting their tents. Live music of gypsy kings from John Robba. Smell of calamares fritos and a calima sunset. Yoga ladies relaxing. Love Gibraltar.
