Grey Heron and a Flock of Iberian Magpies taking a bath (Video)

It’s been quiet on the River Cam the last few days, maybe something related to the rain (yippee!) we’ve been having here in the Algarve.

However, quiet it might be, I still have 2 videos to share.

First up, a Grey Heron decided to visit looking for some aquatic life to feast on. These shallow river pools that are created by the river being dry makes perfect wading areas, however, I suspect the amount of food for the large waders is starting to run out now and the river needs to start running again soon.

[UPDATE] Since writing this post I learnt about the Azure-winged Magpies being the incorrect name for the species found in Europe, it is called the Iberian Magpie, more details can be seen in this post.

A couple of hours later a flock of Azure-winged Magpies decide it’s bathtime. These stunning Magpies live in flocks that can sometimes be huge in numbers and are a very common sight in the Algarve.
