Parrots in Lloret

For  the last week or so we have been hearing an unfamiliar squawking in our local area just a minute or so from the beach in Fenals. I finally managed to see what it was yesterday and quickly got hold of the camera and took these photos before it disappeared again! We have seen parrots before in Lloret but they tend to live at the back of the resort in the woods. This one is different from the usual short tailed parrots and are wondering if he has escaped from somewhere as he does seem to be living alone.

Passing Cruise Liner

 Tonight is very humid and misty, at the moment the time is 21.25 and the temperature is still 29ºc....it probably wont cool down much more through the night, making it another very uncomfortable night for sleeping

 Looking out to sea this cruise liner was just passing, I should think it will be docking in at Palamos just up the coast....it almost looks as though its sailing through the air as you cant tell where the sea ends and the sky starts!
