This started near the coast in Carrapateira and took us inland down a beautiful river valley.
We spotted a very strange new bird that looked just like he had a big red smile. It turned out the be a Common Waxbill ( very uncommon ) to us. It was introduced from Africa into the Eastern Algarve some years ago and seems to be flourishing. The little hamlet of Vilarinha is set in a lovely spot at the head of the valley and we decided that if we wanted to settle in this area, then that would be the place for us.
Nice walk great scenery and flowers starting to bloom.
