Abstract: As usual the systematic list for the two-year period under review was compiled from field notes submitted by various contributors. The extent of coverage remained much the same as in recent years. While the autumn migration of raptors was again well covered, sea-watching remained a much neglected field, no doubt due to the paucity of sea-birds in this part of the world.1981-01-01T00:00:00ZHerring gulls chasing Grey heronshttps://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/handle/123456789/391152019-01-29T02:42:08Z1981-01-01T00:00:00ZTitle: Herring gulls chasing Grey herons

Abstract: During January 1981, whilst out birdwatching in Gibraltar, the author caught a glimpse
of what Looked like a Chiffchaff Phylloscopus collybita, except that this one showed a
flash of orange on the chin. As there was no time for focusing binoculars and as this bird
was not seen again, it was given up as a one-time occurrence.1981-01-01T00:00:00Z
