39 Birwatchers no Corvo

The peak of the migratory birds started, Corvo is one of the most desirable Birdwatchers destinations, from all over the world. Currently there are 39 observers of 11 different nationalities on the island and we received most of the days visitors from Flores.


We often see them equipped with the best and the biggest telescopes and cameras in rushing from one place to another in search of the rarities. Like in the army, they are in constant communication through walkie-talkies to not miss anything. The image below of a Nycticorax violaceus juvenile was captured by the Digiscoping method on Topo / Sand Beach.


Have been observed hundreds of U.S. and Europe migratory birds, both at sea and land. Let's wait for the bad weather west storms that should come this weekend for the perfect conditions to observe more rarities.
