Back home

We've just had a week on Lanzarote - a family holiday not a birding trip but I managed a few bits and bobs as well as a couple of dives where we saw a large school of Barracuda and a diving tick for me in the form of a large Stingray! I've spent quite a bit of time on the Canaries over the years and have caught up with all the specialties and endemics so was chilled about spending to much time birding.

A delayed flight coupled with a security scare at Aricife airport meant we didn't get home until 5.30 am this morning! By the looks of it autumn migration has begun.....
