Descrição
Las Salinas de Fuencaliente, also called the Fuencaliente Saltpans, are located on the southern most part of the island of La Palma. The area contains multiple saltpans overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and is a very good spot for migrating waders and other waterbird species.
The first four saltpans, when walking the circular route around the saltpans, are the most interesting for birds. Most common and numerous are waders like Rola-do-mar, Borrelho-grande-de-coleira and Pilrito-comum. Other waders that can be found here are Pilrito-de-bico-comprido, Pilrito-pequeno, Maçarico-galego, Fuselo and many more.
Besides waders, other waterbird species like herons and Colhereiro visit the area while migrating fatten up. Sometimes, even Flamingo-comum can be seen!
The surrounding land area contains small scrubs and scattered bushes with rocky patches of solidified lava. Here, species like Toutinegra-de-cabeça-preta , Toutinegra-tomilheira and Felosa das Canáris can be found. The open parts are a good spot for Corre-caminho.
Walking the circular route, you come across some perfect viewing points over the Atlantic Ocean. You can find large flocks of Bobo-grande and Gaivota-de-patas-amarelas.
