		A grey heron, a booted eagle, several flocks of alpine swifts, a hoopoe and thousands of house and sand martins.
		A cuckoo and a pair of short toed larks, an adult golden eagle and four bonellis eagles flying together – 2 were adults, the third appeared to be last years chick and the fourth could have been this years chick, it certainly was very red as young birds are.
		The herons and egrets have been particularly prominent and I have been asked why I bother to note the number of moorhens.
