SI VIVES EN ESPAÑA Y TE APASIONAN LAS AVES:
Si vives en España y te apasionan las aves, por favor, ¡ayúdanos a crear un mejor "fórum" ornitológico! Aquí en Andalucia Bird Society queremos y esperamos hacer de nuestro foro un recurso valioso, y tú puedes hacer una gran contribución: únete a nosotros y házte uno de nuestros primeros miembros castellano-parlantes.

Hasta la fecha, la casi totalidad de la gente adscrita a nuestra sociedad es no-nativa y, mientras apreciamos sus inestimables aportaciones, nos encantaría que la gente española amante de las aves formara también parte de nuestro grupo.

Queremos que personas que tienen el castellano como lengua materna escriban sus notícias y/o historias en "la lengua de Cervantes", y nos parecería maravilloso poder intercambiar opiniones, información, etc , con la gente del país. Somos muy conscientes también de que tú puedes tener notícias que no nos han llegado a nosotros y, además, de que podrías estar mejor informado que nosotros sobre ciertos temas de conservación. Así pues, por favor, ¡únete a nosotros y participa!

Se puede ver el foro siguiendo el enlace escrito abajo. ¡Muchas gracias!

Sierra de Loja and surroundings.

There will be a field meeting on Friday April 29th around Sierra de Loja, near the town of Loja in Granada Province. The meeting place will be on the lower car park of the Abades Service Station on the A92 Autovia heading towards Granada. The station is at km post 189 very very close (just after) to the Western exit for Loja and the start time will be 10:00.
The morning will be on the Sierra it's self and then a lunch stop in Venta del Raya, the afternoon will be in the wooded valley running along the Western side of the Sierra and will be birds and Orchids.
Up on the sierra we should pick up Blue Rock Thrush, Rufous-tailed Rock Thrush, Rock Sparrow, Rock Bunting, Several Warbler species, all three Wheatears with out to much trouble. Sawfly, Yellow Bee, Mirror, Lange's, Lizard and Conical and some of the Orchids in the area.

Regards Mick.

Hope we might make it.

But can you confirm if I have found the right location from the attached screenshot from Google Earth? If I am right, the meet is at  37° 9'52.45"N   4°10'8.89"W

Thanks

Barrie

P.S. Is there to be a March meet?

At last a meeting when I'm actually going to be in Spain!  Shame it's so far from central Cadiz province where I'll be based (as usual) - so I'll probably not be able to make it :(

More like 3hrs 30mins - not that I'm that slow a driver, it's just that I keep seeing things I want to stop & look at!  Actually, had I not had visitors that week I'd have probably gone as I have several friend in the area where I could stay over<

Hi Mick, haven't seen you for ages but I did see your Eagle Owl recently (en-route to the Jaen meeting). And sorry I'm not able to see you in April - I'll be away on hols.

Hi Mick,

on & Feb I said "Hope we might make it."

Unfortunately, since then Jan has started a 2 month course of treatment for which she has to go to Cartagena every Mondy, Wednesday and Friday. It will be reviewed after a month (she is now in her second week) but if it continues for the second month, then unfortuantely we will not be able to get to your meet.

Sorry.

Barrie and jan
