Day 7: Calle Oceania and Paseo Charca Maspalomas

Home Biota: what is it? Animals Mammals Birds NL EN

The next day I walked along the beach from Paseo Charca Maspalomas. It was a touristy boulevard, less interesting for the birds and me. The most beautiful shots: the Whimbrel (Numenius phaeopus) and the Black-winged Stilt (Himantopus himantopus).
