Bird Watching or Twitching in Andalucia Southern Spain
April 2006 - Roller - Coracias garrulous
One to look out for from this month until August. You should see it in the open dry land in the high Genal valley and, last year, on Torcal. From a distance it looks like a crow but closer too its blue head, neck and underparts, chestnut back and dark blue flight feathers make it unmistakeable.
