Description

Bajo Negro is located near several biotopes. The first one is the sea. At sea here you will find Средиземноморская чайка and rarely Клуша. If you are lucky, also Северная олуша or Средиземноморский буревестник. Another setting is the beach. You can easily see Песчанка. If you continue further, you will reach the dunes. In the desert area inland the Берберийская каменная куропатка is found, Серый жаворонок and Канарский конёк.

Comments & Tips

During a visit or two in November 2021 I saw Авдотка, Средиземноморский сорокопут, Очковая славка in the desert area and on the beach Колпица, Малый веретенник, Морской зуёк, Тулес as well as other mentioned species. The north end of Corralejo is worth exploring too. Пустынный снегирь quite common here.

Hello Dave, congratulations on a beautiful observation. I have seen some of the species you mentioned, such as Малый веретенник or Колпица in Corralejo. But I didn't come across Авдотка 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 Вихляй that was reported here). Someone even saw a Северная олуша here. Thank you for your response. Michal.
