Birdwatching
The Rock Dove is the parent species of feral pigeons and the hybrid groups often to be seen in the outskirts. It is very frequent in the old part of the city, where domestic pigeons have traditionally been reared in dovecotes. It vies with other species such as Lesser Kestrels for nesting nooks and crannies in the city’s buildings, much to the detriment of this protected species.
