hotrod Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 do any birds get reported? where have the other 500 gone?Just back from costa tiguise. Lanzarote , seen a gay blue pied with the wild ones with an ets ring on it ,it looked an older bird with bigish wattles ,maybe lost last year or year before, it visited my hotel every morn for a drink from the fresh water children's pool , while lying sunbathing on Sunday seen it circling high above our hotel , then a perigrine had a go at it ,and both disappeared behind the hotel , but it never got it as it was still there on Wednesday morn just before I left for the airport .

About 5 miles accross the water from me , I can see it from my bedroom window , but they won't come back accross if the go down the north side of the river from training well some don't anyway .
