Beskrivning
During winter most sea birds except for the overwintering gulls and terns leave the Canary Islands. Interestingly the oceanlöpare breeds in the archipelago during winter, but on inaccessible rocky islands. If you are lucky it can be seen flying out at sea looking for food. In early november it is still possible to find Gulnäbbad lira and makaronesisk lira. During spring and summer these birds can be found regularly as well as others like havslöpare, mindre lira and spetsstjärtad petrell
Gulls and terns that can be found are medelhavstrut, silltrut, Kentsk tärna and occasionly rödnäbbad trut and svarthuvad mås

Tillgänglighet
The waters around Gran Canaria can of course only be visited by boat. If you don't have a boat or a friend with a boat the best way to explore this locality is either by ferry to another island or by dolphin tour. Some sea birds like Gulnäbbad lira follow dolphin pods in hopes of getting some food. Different tours depart from the harbour of Puerto Rico. See links to operators below.
