On the morning of day four we decided to have a short look at Albufereta, stopping at the pull in to C'an Cuarrassa on the way.
From the pull in, we were able to look back towards a large hotel and managed to pick up 5+
Spotless Starlings on the roof. Other birds around the small reserve here included a couple of
Whinchats and
iberiae Yellow Wagtails and our only
Meadow Pipit of the trip.
At Albufereta itself a really nice selection of birds included 4
Stone Curlews sat on an island, a
Redstart,
Pied Flycatcher,
Purple Swamphen and 2 more
Spotless Starlings sat right alongside a
Common Starling. We also got our best views of
Booted Eagle of the trip and also had three more flyover
Audouin's Gulls.
