But 1000 species is a lot for such a small island.KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16778157916183036144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526180646938954660.post-79747279078516601132014-05-21T13:28:17.298+01:002014-05-21T13:28:17.298+01:00Great series!!

The Hoopoe images that you shared are really great...those birds, both of them would be such a treat to see. Menorca looks stunning and the field of Poppies, what a sight that had to have been, gorgeous beauty shared Phil.

I have never visited Menorca and I somehow doubt that I will, so I'll have to do it vicariously through your eyes. I have often read of the slaughter of migratory birds by the gunners along the coast of these Spanish islands. Does this still take place? David M.

I think we always try and see how hard we can push the numbers wherever we are......I do it as well. It's a fun challenge. No matter how you fee, you found and observed some great birds!!
