Descripción
The Parque Princesa Sofía is an urban park in the town of La Línea de la Concepción. It's located in the Strait of Gibraltar area, one of the best birding places of Spain and Europe, specially during migration periods. This park attracts, surprisingly, lots of passerines or songbirds of many species. One of the advantages is that these birds are much more easy to find, see, and even to photograph, than in other places. Moreover, with westernly winds, you can also see lots of soaring birds.
Until the end of 2019 around 120 species have been seen. The best dates are, of course depending on the species, from mid March to mid May in spring, and september and october in autum. Some of the species you can find in good numbers are: migrant Abubilla común, Alcaudón Común, Mosquitero Papialbo, Mosquitero Musical, Curruca Mirlona, Curruca Carrasqueña, Papamoscas Gris, Papamoscas Cerrojillo, Colirrojo Real, Tarabilla Norteña, Bisbita Arbóreo and Escribano Hortelano. Wintering Mosquitero Común, Bisbita Pratense and Colirrojo Tizón. Resident Estornino Negro and Curruca Cabecinegra. Among the rarities, we have had: Mosquitero Bilistado (anually in october), Estornino Rosado, Escribano Pigmeo, Bisbita de Hodgson, Curruca Zarcerilla and Gorrión Dorado.
