Raptor Migration.

Gibraltar has to be one of the best locations to observe the bird migration at this time of the year, always bearing in mind that we need the wind blowing a strong south westerly.

We have had some great views and on a couple of days the numbers of birds 
coming over were tremendous, I would say impossible to count all that was 
in front of us.

Well here are a few photos of some of what we saw.
