Description

Bajo Negro is located near several biotopes. The first one is the sea. At sea here you will find Galeb klaukavac and rarely Mali tamnoleđi galeb. If you are lucky, also Bluna or Veliki zovoj. Another setting is the beach. You can easily see Bijeli Žalar. If you continue further, you will reach the dunes. In the desert area inland the Barbary Partridge is found, španjolska ševa and Berthelot's Pipit.

Comments & Tips

During a visit or two in November 2021 I saw Ćukavica, Iberian Grey Shrike, Zapadna grmuša in the desert area and on the beach Žličarka, Riđa muljača, Morski Kulik, Zlatar Pijukavac as well as other mentioned species. The north end of Corralejo is worth exploring too. Trumpeter Finch quite common here.

Hello Dave, congratulations on a beautiful observation. I have seen some of the species you mentioned, such as Riđa muljača or Žličarka in Corralejo. But I didn't come across Ćukavica here at all. However, I was only here for 10 days in February 2022 and I know I didn't see a lot of species (like the Hubara that was reported here). Someone even saw a Bluna here. Thank you for your response. Michal.
