Mallorca Day 1

Actually our second day on Mallorca but didn't get out birding yesterday as decided to have a day off after a hectic and exhausting few weeks. This morning I checked out a nearby (we are based on the east coast at Calla Bona)  headland Punta de n'Amer Ebird list here; the area was packed full of scratching Sardinian Warblers with Thekla Larks singing overhead, singing Stone Curlews and Tawny Pipits and migrants scattered across the headland with Bee-eaters going overhead and Balearic and Scopoli's Shearwater offshore with Shags and an Eleonora's Falcon high overhead.
