Port de Sóller, Mallorca 0 ▲ Nature Matters 50 days ago · Nature · hide · Fediverse post A week in September in Port de Sóller, Mallorca (15th-21st), for sun, sea, mountain-trail hiking, and more. Goat-haunted paths with Blue Rock Thrush, Firecrest and Mediterranean Spotted Flycatcher, Booted Eagle, Kestrel, Red Kite, Raven, Cinereous Vulture, Audouin’s Gull and Herring, Yellow-legged Gull, Little Egret. Fergus Style Soller Beach Butterflies and moths were less numerous, but Lang’s Short-tailed Blue was everywhere, with numerous Vestal, lots of Hummingbird Hawk-moth, two possible Two-tailed Pasha on our final hike. Also, Violet Carpenter Bee, Emperor and Broad Scarlet dragonfly. Back at the hotel, our balcony had its own resident geckos. The following are the selection (a few dozen from 1600 taken, lots in burst mode, hence numbers!) from my camera in no particular order. Phone photos will be in a separate post. Audouin’s Gull, Ichthyaetus audouinii Audouin’s Gull, Ichthyaetus audouinii Balearic, or Mediterranean, Spotted Flycatcher, Muscicapa tyrrhenica Juvenile Blue… Commenting on Bubbles has been removed.
