From BirgitK I got a link (or how can I say!?) where you can see the daily migration of different birds in the Strait of Gibraltar.
fundacionmigres.org/migres_planeadoras08.html
Unfortunately it´s in spanish language … difficult to understand, but somehow it works. And it´s really most fascinating. The migrating birds are watched from different points:
Alg > I don´t know …..
Caz > Cazalla
Fac > Facinas
Tra > Tarifa
Every day there is a new entry how many birds from which kind migrated on this very day. Here for example the 26th of August;
Under the date there is obviously written about the weather, Viento del Este means eastwind (as far as I found out….)
A few birdnames I hope the translation is right!?
