Bay where you can observe Gaivota-de-patas-amarelas and by the rocks Maçarico-galego. In the desert area inland you can observe Perdiz-moura.
Bajo Negro is located near several biotopes. The first one is the sea. At sea here you will find Gaivota-de-patas-amarelas and rarely gaivota-da-asa-escura. If you are lucky, also Ganso-patola or Bobo-grande. Another setting is the beach. You can easily see Pilrito-sanderlingo. If you continue further, you will reach the dunes. In the desert area inland the Perdiz-moura is found, calhandrinha-das-marismas and Corre-caminho.
The location is walkable. The advantage is that it is located right next to a hotel, where you can park, and where there are sometimes Cartaxo das Canárias. Click on the P in the map for directions.
During a visit or two in November 2021 I saw Alcaravão, picanço-real, Toutinegra-tomilheira in the desert area and on the beach Colhereiro, Fuselo, Borrelho-de-coleira-interrompida, Tarambola-cinzenta as well as other mentioned species. The north end of Corralejo is worth exploring too. Pintarroxo-trombeteiro quite common here.
Hello Dave, congratulations on a beautiful observation. I have seen some of the species you mentioned, such as Fuselo or Colhereiro in Corralejo. But I didn't come across Alcaravão 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 Abetarda-moura that was reported here). Someone even saw a Ganso-patola here. Thank you for your response. Michal.
