Slow Going North Tenerife

Went out Thursday for a long slog and only added a Kestrel to the short list of birds. There are Rock Doves here but I am positive they interbreed with the local feral pigeons.

Friday 16th February. Looks like I came too early for migrants especially Hirundines which I find difficult to Swallow (coughs). Not a single one seen nor heard after another long trek.
Now for a touch of self contradiction. I managed 2 separate Common Sandpiper which were in a real hurry.

Another Little Egret has turned up. 5/6 Rose-ringed Parakeet flying around screeching - no change there then.
3/4 Blackbird 5 YLG and a plague of Serin.
