Early on the morning of September 6th, Einion wasted no time and continued his migration south. Any temptations of the Costa del Sol were wasted on him as he flew straight past Malaga, Torremolinos, and Marbella in a westerly direction. By 14.00 he had passed Gibraltar and was leaving Spanish air space heading southwest.

After a four hour Atlantic ocean crossing, Einion found land again and roosted just north of Rabat in Morocco. He left the Dyfi the previous Wednesday and by the following Tuesday, less than a week, he was in Africa. What a bird!
