Day 2: N9 and Aghigha

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Plants Mammals Birds Insects NL EN

A day with many kilometers and relatively short stops. I have to skip the first walk: a wide path, but the group can go up faster than I can. They come back with beautiful observations. So I amuse myself with the finches that look different here. It is a subspecies of the finch that also occurs in Europe.
