A touch of the Pyrennes
With an early morning departure from Arles we had to reach the famous wine region of Bordeaux. I decided to take a nice detour and we entered the Pyrennes, the beautiful mountain where we have never been. Secretly I was hoping to find accidentally a Bonelli's Eagle but finally missed it. Turning west from the coastline the weather changed dramatically from sunny to rainy. The clouds had such a dark greyblue color what I have seldomly seen in Hungary. This resulted an exciting experience later to drive in heavy snowfall with summer tyres.
Some nice bird species seen on the way:
Eurasian Griffon 9 The Pyrennes, near Gesse
Red Kite 1 in Pamiers
European Honey-Buzzard 1 near Perpignan
Common Swift 10 The Pyrennes, Formigueres
Eurasian Crag-Martin 80 The Pyrennes, Mount Louis
