  6. The gecko is amazing but the particular fascination for me is the birdlife. And to think I was excited when I saw a mixed flock of blue, coal & great tit with nuthatch, greenfinch & robin thrown in! Imagine seeing an Eagle in a town.

    PD - definitely Turdidae - maybe Turdus tephronotus or T pelios
