A Couple of Gulls from Spain

It’s been very hot and aside from birding from the apartment in early morning, I haven’t been seeing a lot of birds. Here is a shot from our casa.

Looking west from our terrace. We often walk to the village (La Caleta) but the walk back into the sun is challenging.

One of the common gulls here is the Yellow-footed Gull. This one was just floating off the beach this morning.

Another gull we see is the Audoin’s Gull. Full confession, this may be a European Herring Gull. Comments are welcomed.

Of topic, here’s a little spanish lesson I learned today. At the supermercado, I bought some eggs, onion, and tomatoes for an omelet for supper. I just took the carton out of the fridge to start and noticed “huevos cocidos”, cooked eggs. So, we are having egg salad for dinner. No hay problema, esa es mi nueva palabra de hoy.
