Descrizione
Barbate Estuary (Esteros de la Isleta de San Fransico). Although far smaller and with fewer birds than nearby Cadiz Bay, the better access here and it's proximity to the popular birding locations around Tarifa make it a good option for visiting birders. It is a good site for waders such as Fratino, Cavaliere d'Italia, Piovanello pancianera, Piovanello comune, Piovanello tridattilo and other migrant waders. Pernice di mare often hawk over the area in spring and summer. Fenicottero are present in good numbers. Careful scanning of the dry islands usually produces a Occhione or two. Gabbiano reale are common and good numbers of Gabbiano corso are usually present plus a few Gabbiano corallino. Sterna maggiore is regular and Sterna di Rüppell are sometimes seen. During passage the clumps of scrub along the track often hold migrants such as Pigliamosche , Balia nera , Codirosso and Sterpazzolina. Check for Calandro, Cutrettola and Calandrella ( Calandrina are also sometimes reported). Check from the beach for Sula, Beccapesci and shearwaters. The main channel of the estuary is also good for terns and gulls
Dettagli
Accesso
Parking off the A 2231 Bonanza - Zahara road is straightforward but alternatively take the track to park at the start of the footpath. Alternatively you can drive further along the track for c1 km to check the bushes and scrub. The best option is to take the footpath into the old salinas and then loop round back along the track although you can also take the track running parallel to the main road.
