Descripción
You arrive at an open area looking out to sea and to the rocky shoreline if the tide is out. At low tide large numbers of gulls and waders can be seen roosting whilst large numbers of birds can be seen on the sea.
During the winter large numbers of Scoters can be seen. Mainly Negrón común and Negrón especulado. Other species often seen are Pato Havelda, Éider común, Silbón Europeo, Colimbo Chico, and Zampullín Cuellirrojo. Rarities on the sea at this time of the year include Negrón aliblanco, Stejneger's Scoter, Negrón Careto, Éider real, Mérgulo Atlántico and Colimbo Ártico. On the coastline a large full roost can occur predominantly consisting of Gaviota Cana, Gaviota argéntea europea, Gaviota Reidora and Gavión Atlántico with the occasional wintering Gaviota sombría, Gaviota Cabecinegra and Gaviota Groenlandesa. Wader species often seen include Correlimos Común, Archibebe Común, Zarapito Real, Vuelvepiedras Común, Ostrero Euroasiático and Aguja Colipinta. Rarer gulls and waders seen on the shoreline have been Gaviota de Delaware and Correlimos Gordo.
During spring and summer months lots of new birds can be seen including Charrán ártico, Charrán Común, Charrán Patinegro and the occasional Charrán Rosado, Arao Común, Alca Común and Frailecillo Atlántico.
Autumn migration brings passage seabirds and waders with the chance of all four skua species, Pardela Pichoneta and divers. Scarcer waders that could be seen are Aguja Colinegra and Archibebe Claro.
This site gives a nice variety of species from a single point and gives you a great chance to learn the identifications of British shorebirds.
