Hi Ian,

This maybe worth a visit http://www.gibraltargardens.gi/ . I used to holiday every year at Calahonda (between Marbella and Fuengirola). Most of the "resort" gardens attract Butterflies and maybe the time of year you are going you may have the migration south?? If you head inland to the hills/scrub (if you can find somewhere that is not being built on :rolleyes: ) then you will have plenty of Raptors and Bee Eaters.

HTH

Regards

Rob
