When I started writing a blog, my idea was to demonstrate that it's possible to bird just by using public transport, since there are some interesting places very close to Barcelona.
However, my birding activity changed a few time after I created the blog. I started getting works in the field and what started as a hobby turnt suddenly into a real profession.
I remember when I wrote on my old blog that I had taken my ringing license, maybe that has been the most important turning point of my birding career. As soon as that, the blog started to contain information about moult and identification, and the local birding went out the window.
Of course I've kept on ringing and I'm still interested in identification discussions but nowadays I feel I should focus my blog on local birding or, better said, turn it into a diary. My all-day birding doesn't include neither rarities nor endangered species, but that's my life actually and the name of the blog is because of that.
I would not forget some other wildlife groups, and I will give also some attention to both plants and animals. I hope people will find interest in the new puroposes of my blog and will keep on reading it.
Persimmon trees look so stunning during autumn, so it's worth to take some pictures of the landscapes.
Moreover, I was on a campsite the rest of the weekend and I took the opportunity to ring some farmland birds. I ringed just 5 birds, but they were 5 different species. The most interesting one was a Rock bunting (Emberiza cia), also a male. The flock of buntings that feed the area let me another capture: a nice Cirl Bunting (Emberiza cirlus). Interesting sightings included some Redwings, Woodlarks and a Mistle trush, very scarce in the area.
