The area of my house is quite rich in birds and I have this visitor
quite often. Last time I saw it was when I put some bread on the garden and the Hoopoe came flying and scared all the other birds around. I need to check a few trees to see if it is nesting around the property, because it seems to always come and go from/to the same area. I also get hundreds of very small birds with a red beak (do not have a picture and do not know the name) that come early in the morning, but these seem to be dissapearing... maybe due to the fact thar golf course if being built nearby and a considerable amount of florest is being destroyed... |

The picture is 1 week old. We were in N of Portugal (Ponte de Lima) and there were a couple in the garden of the house we were staying in. Beautiful birds - first time I'd seen them. -- Kay |
